The growing risk and vulnerability of Mombasa's coastal flooding, with over 30% of the county facing high flood risk, as revealed in flood risk and vulnerability assessment developed by the Mombasa City-Lab in collaboration with the Covenant of Mayors in Sub-Saharan Africa (CoM SSA); underscores the urgent need for detailed strategising and resource mobilisation for disaster management. The Mombasa City Lab Project aims to develop innovative, multi-sectoral solutions through comprehensive assessments and technical validation processes. This report highlights the varying levels of flood risk, vulnerability, and adaptive capacity of vulnerable communities and assets by blending GIS and participatory methods. Moreover, the report will inform solution development and the areas to prioritise the various actions that address the county's mandate in mitigating the occurrence and impacts of floods.
