Abstract: This mapping outlines institutional actors managing climate-security risks across Eastern Africa. It profiles IGAD, EAC, AU, and Nile Basin Initiative, and mechanisms like CEWARN and ICPAC in forecasting, resilience planning, and peacebuilding. UN missions and funding agencies (AfDB, GCF) are assessed for climate-security integration. The report identifies coordination gaps and recommends a regional Climate Security Coordination Mechanism. Annexes detail climate-focused research centers and policy outputs. It proposes multi-stakeholder Communities of Practice to scale conflict-sensitive adaptation and institutional responses to transboundary climate threats.
