Forests, rangelands, rivers and wildlife do not stop at national borders. Across the East African Community, shared natural resources store large amounts of carbon and support millions of livelihoods. Yet they are often managed country by country. This session explores how regional cooperation on transboundary ecosystems can unlock stronger climate mitigation, attract climate finance and benefit communities on both sides of the border. It brings together the EAC Secretariat, Kenya’s Ministry of EAC, ASALs and Regional Development, Kenya Forest Service and GIZ to share experience and practical pathways for joint action.
