    "content": "The structure of climate finance has key actors. Having said that, allow me to highlight on who they are in climate finance and their roles. The first one is the National Treasury which is the primary custodian of all matters climate finance. It is also responsible for the overall implementation of our climate finance policy. The Cabinet Secretary, Principal Secretary and the whole team of the National Treasury are at the forefront in whatever we do with our climate finance framework. The National Treasury role is overall mobilisation of climate funds and they lead. When we go to Conference of Parties (COP29) in November, they will be the lead people, in terms of climate finance negotiation, under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). The other function of the National Treasury is to establish a dedicated climate finance and green economy unit which they did in 2016. It coordinates and facilitates activities related to climate finance. They are also the current implementers in all our counties, even in Garissa and Meru where you come from. They are the implementers of a fund called Financing Locally- Led Climate Action (FLLOCA) programme. It is mainly run from the National Treasury, but the main stakeholders are county governments. Finally, the National Treasury, as an actor, is Kenya's National designated DNA for Green Climate Fund. The DNA is in my Ministry, and it is domiciled in NEMA. That is where the register for carbon market is, but in terms of Green Climate Fund, the National Treasury holds the pen.
