Investing in Locally Led Adaptation: Scaling Kenya’s Devolved Climate Finance Model Beyond FLLoCA I

November 16, 2026 · 12:00 pm – 1:00 pm Somali Pavilion Stand B175

Kenya’s Financing Locally-Led Climate Action (FLLoCA) programme has shown that climate finance works best when it reaches counties and communities directly. Local people decide which investments build their resilience. As the first phase ends, this session looks at what comes next. It asks how the devolved model can grow in size, attract new funding and offer lessons to other countries in the region, including Somalia. Government, multilateral funds, development banks, philanthropy and city and regional networks will share how they can invest together in adaptation that is led locally and delivers results on the ground.
