# Kenya Climate Risk & Vulnerability Assessment (CRVA) > **An interactive web dashboard mapping climate risk across all 47 counties of Kenya** > WiSK Mentorship Programme · 2026 --- ## 🌍 Live Dashboard **View the interactive map →** --- ## 📌 Project Overview This project produces a **Climate Risk and Vulnerability Assessment (CRVA)** for Kenya, generating evidence-based climate vulnerability maps and a county-level risk index to guide adaptation interventions and national policy. The assessment follows the **IPCC AR6 vulnerability framework**: ``` Risk = f(Hazard, Exposure, Vulnerability) Vulnerability = f(Sensitivity, Adaptive Capacity) ``` All 47 Kenyan counties are ranked by a composite CRVA score (0–1 scale) derived from multi-criteria spatial analysis in ArcGIS Pro using satellite data, census statistics, and climate datasets. --- ## 🗺️ Dashboard Features | Feature | Description | |---|---| | **Interactive choropleth map** | All 47 counties coloured by CRVA risk class | | **County details panel** | CRVA score, raw score, grid cell count, risk rank | | **Ranked county list** | Searchable, sorted by CRVA score | | **Top 10 chart** | Bar chart of highest-risk counties | | **Risk distribution donut** | Breakdown of counties by risk class | | **Layer controls** | Toggle CRVA layer, switch basemaps, adjust opacity | | **Hover tooltips** | Instant county name and score on hover | | **Click to fly** | Click any county to zoom in and view details | --- ## 🏆 Key Findings ### Risk Class Distribution | Risk Class | Counties | Notable Counties | |---|---|---| | 🔴 Very High | 2 | Vihiga, Wajir | | 🟠 High | 5 | Tana River, Nyamira, Nandi, Turkana, Mandera | | 🟡 Moderate | 16 | Kakamega, Siaya, Marsabit, Kisii, Bungoma, Kilifi | | 🟢 Low | 16 | Nakuru, Nairobi, Garissa, Samburu, Narok | | 🌿 Very Low | 8 | Baringo, Elgeyo/Marakwet, Kajiado, Kirinyaga | ### Highest Risk Counties (Top 5) 1. **Vihiga** — CRVA: 1.000 *(note: small sample size — 23 grid cells)* 2. …
