We advise government entities and private clients on Kenya's climate change legal and governance framework, including the Climate Change Act, county-level climate legislation, and the country's Nationally Determined Contributions. We have worked directly with county governments to develop climate change laws that have been enacted into legislation.
We advise on the legal and regulatory dimensions of international climate finance, including donor and philanthropy-funded projects, carbon markets, and multilateral climate instruments. Our team has contributed to pan-African scholarship on Just Energy Transition and engaged with UNFCCC processes at the highest level.
We have led multidisciplinary teams, including lawyers, scientists, environmental experts, and gender specialists, on donor-funded projects reviewing Kenya's legal framework for short-lived climate pollutants and air quality. This cross-disciplinary experience gives us a practical understanding of how ESG obligations translate into regulatory and operational realities.
Our Principal Partner has participated in multiple Conferences of the Parties (COP 26 and COP 27), convening and leading side events on SLCP integration and the Paris Agreement implementation in the COMESA and EAC regions. We bring genuine international engagement to our climate advisory, not just a domestic perspective.
Our Climate Change and Sustainability practice covers domestic climate law, international climate finance, ESG compliance, and engagement with multilateral climate frameworks. We have led a government-commissioned legal review of Kenya's framework for Short-Lived Climate Pollutants involving multidisciplinary experts across law, science, health, and civil society. We have participated in and convened side events at COP 26 and COP 27, contributed to the Africa Climate Summit 2023, and provided input to the Katowice Committee of Experts under the UNFCCC. We advise county governments on climate legislation, assist clients in understanding the legal implications of carbon and transition finance, and contribute to Just Transition scholarship across the African continent. Our consulting arm, Trade & Economic Law Consultants, complements our legal advisory with practical project delivery capacity.
Climate change has moved from a niche area of practice to a critical dimension of how governments, investors, and corporations manage risk and obligation. Clients trust us in this space because our engagement is authentic — we have been in the rooms at COP 26 and COP 27, contributed to pan-African Just Transition principles, and helped a county government draft climate legislation that was signed into law. We are not repurposing generalist credentials for a trending topic. Our track record in international climate forums, donor-funded consultancies, and domestic legislation gives us a depth of context that enables genuinely useful advice in a rapidly evolving legal environment
