Abstract: This study forms part of the WWF Africa Adaptation Initiative (AAI), which encourages mainstreaming of climate change adaptation within WWF offices in the WWF Regional Office for Africa. The overall goal of the AAI is safeguarding high-value conservation areas and livelihoods in Africa through the integration of climate change adaptation into WWF’s conservation work and the implementation of climate smart activities. The Initiative is focused on capacity building of WWF staff in Africa, piloting adaptation planning as well as supporting implementation. The AAI has entered Phase II of implementation and is being supported by NORAD through WWF Norway and this project forms part of Phase II. As part of the AAI participating country, WWF Kenya has received funding to support climate change adaptation work in the Greater Mara Ecosystem (GME).
