Summary

Kenya faces significant environmental challenges including the degradation of vital wetlands, particularly Ondiri Wetland, due to human activities, alongside widespread waste management issues and air pollution in major cities. The National Environment Management Authority (NEMA) is actively working to address these issues by reviewing and strengthening Wetlands Regulations, promoting conservation and gazetting of key wetlands, collaborating with international partners on sustainable waste management, and developing air quality standards and electrification programs. These initiatives are currently in progress, with recent events like World Wetlands Day celebrations, staff training, and the launch of new waste management and clean air programs occurring in 2025.
