What is Kenyan Curriculum

The effects of climate change are a major global concern. In Kenya, the impact of climate change has been felt in perennial droughts which sometimes result into conflict as communities fight for pasture and water. In a bid to address climate change issues, Kenya has developed policies that focus on mitigation and adaptation measures borrowed from ideas outlined in global climate change strategies. One such strategy is the employment of education as a tool to create awareness on climate change issues. This chapter will examine the climate change policies developed by bodies in charge of higher education in Kenya. The chapter will further analyze attempts that have been made to integrate climate change education into curricula. In addition, the chapter will trace the history of discourse that saw the introduction of climate change education in institutions of higher learning. Finally, the chapter will analyze pedagogical strategies that can be employed in teaching climate change content.
