Kampala Climate Change Action Plan 2018-2023 Yakubu Aliyu Bununu Ronard Mukuye Janet Lumayag Roland Nassour UMTCC 2018 – June 29th, 2018
Introduction and Context Function: Uganda’s Capital City Total Area: 189 Km2 Population: 1.9 million people
2 kg/capita/day 3800 tons/day
Climate Change in Kampala The most critical climate changes in Kampala are increased/reduced precipitation and increasing temperature
Vulnerability to Climate Change in Kampala Estimated 1600 km of urban roads segments are highly vulnerable to flooding and extreme weather events. The climate change extremes have also affected health either directly or in transient. Malaria, dysentery and cholera epidemics are increasing. Cholera cases and frequency has increased in the last 8 to 10 years due to erratic rainfall contributing to slow onset floods in many towns. Infrastructure, housing and livelihoods are the most affected.
