Sustainable Development in kenya : Stocktaking in the run up to Rio+20. Nairobi kenya , 2012. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY. During the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development (UNCED) in Rio de Janeiro in 1992, kenya endorsed and adopted Agenda 21, which provided the world with potential practical solutions to the ever-pressing problems of the environment and Development . kenya has ratified most of the international agreements, treaties, conventions, and protocols resulting from the first Rio conference, that are considered to be in harmony with the country's plans for Sustainable Development . The most significant outcome was that kenya joined and ratified three international treaties, the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), whose aim is to cooperatively consider actions to limit average global temperature increases and the resulting climate change, and to cope with whatever impacts which were, by then, inevitable; the United Nations Convention on Biological Diversity (UNCBD).
The Environmental Management and Coordination Act of 1999 (EMCA) was enacted to provide an appropriate legal and institutional framework for the management of the environment and for matters connected therewith and incidental thereto. Environmental considerations of development are contained within the social and economic pillars.
