The meeting will be hosted by RCE Greater Nairobi, the National Environment Management Authority Kenya (NEMA-K) and the Kenyan RCE Network, with the support of United Nations University Institute for the Advanced Study of Sustainability (UNU-IAS) under the theme 'Role of African RCEs in Climate Action'.
The meeting will bring together participants both globally, and those from the entire RCE Africa community to reflect on the actions undertaken by various RCEs in Africa in addressing climate change. It will be a forum for participants to share best practices and innovations in addressing change impacts.

The interactive sessions will provide RCEs with a platform to discuss how to further strengthen and engage with Regional and National governments to focus RCE activities on climate change with a view to achieving Sustainable Development Goals.
