🌧️☀️ Did you know.... flood risk can actually increase after droughts?

Why? Dry, scorched soil becomes solid, unable to absorb heavy rain—leading to surface runoff and flash floods. 🌊

Healthy soil helps prevent floods. 🌱

📍 The 12th National Symposium for Disaster Risk Reduction 2026 has officially kicked off in Nakuru under the theme “Resilience Starts at Home.”

The three-day symposium brings together government institutions, county governments, development partners, researchers, the private sector and the youth to discuss risk-informed settlements, early warning and early action, community-led resilience, social inclusion and sustainable financing for disaster risk reduction.

The goal is to strengthen partnerships and identify practical actions towards building safer, more resilient communities across Kenya.

[Brian Mukasa @BrianMukasa5]

As we kickstart the 12th National Disaster Risk Reduction 2026, today's dialogue on Disaster Risk Reduction is a powerful reminder that resilience is not just infrastructure, it is safety, dignity and well-being in our homes.

We commend the National Disaster Operation Centre for its robust Anticipatory Action Roadmap and Kenya's bold step through the Affordable Housing Program.

With 318M people homeless globally and billions in inadequate shelter, the call to leave no one behind is urgent.

As UN partners, we remain committed to climate action, mental health, and ensuring homes are safe for women and girls - free from GBV. @UNFPAKen
