Ratification status of the Convention for this country: | Date of Signature | Date of Ratification | Date of Entry into Force | | Oct 14 1994 | Jun 24 1997 | Sep 22 1997 | Desertification is a global issue and cannot be tackled by one government. As a result the world community negotiated the United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification. The Convention serves as a mechanism for concerted efforts and synergies among world communities to address desertification effectively. Kenya ratified the convention in 1997 with a view to joining the World Community to Combat Desertification. One of the main commitments of the Parties to the Convention is to develop National Action Programme, which serve as guiding frameworks for the implementation of the Convention at national levels. In this respect, Kenya developed the National Action Programme (NAP) through a consultative and participatory process that involved all the stakeholders and culminated in the production of this document in line with National Reports: National Action Programme: | Year of submission | English | | 2000 | | | 2001 | | | 2002 | (pdf) | Other National Documents: | Year of submission | English | | 2002 | (pdf) | Experts nominated by this country for the Roster of Experts of the CST: » View list of experts NGOs from this country accredited to the UNCCD: » View list of accredited NGOs National Focal Points for the Convention: Dr. Kennedy I.
