- Shade: crisis severity (ACAPS), the whole humanitarian crisis
- High6.8Kenya: Multiple crises in Kenya
- Dots: natural-hazard alerts (GDACS), one per flood, storm, wildfire or earthquake; colour is the need for international help from that event alone, not the overall crisis
- Green8this event alone: international assistance unlikely to be needed; local impact can still be significant
- Orange0this event alone: international assistance may be needed
- Red0this event alone: international assistance likely to be needed
Dots: 8 GDACS alert records plotted in this frame (tap or hover for details); a geographic subset of the evidence card, not an exhaustive disaster count.

Donor concentration and cuts E63
Computed by the app: OECD CRS gross disbursements in this scope, 2024 (card E28), all official donors USD 3,651.9m; donors' total net ODA from OECD DAC1 (card E40).
donor's total aid fell more than 10% in the latest provisional year
- 31% Largest donor's share
- 65% Three largest donors' share
- 29% Share from donors whose total aid fell more than 10% (2024→2025) (USD 1,042.0 m)
- 13% Rough estimate for 2025, not a forecast: less in this scope if those cuts fell evenly (USD 487.5 m)
Exposed: a donor whose total aid fell more than 10% in the OECD's provisional latest year. Rough estimate method: each donor's 2024 aid in this scope, reduced by the same percentage as its total aid fell from 2024 to 2025 in the OECD's provisional figures, summed over donors that fell more than 10%; donors that did not cut count as unchanged. It assumes each donor cut this country as much as its overall aid; in practice donors protect some countries and cut others harder. The OECD's country figures for 2025 will replace it, usually about a year after the year ends. Only the donors listed on the OECD card are assessed; multilateral donors are not in the OECD's donor totals.

OECD Climate-related development finance, recipient perspective, 2022–2024: commitments in current USD millions; retrieved 2026-10-13. Commitments, not disbursements. Bilateral activities count at full value when climate is a principal or significant objective (OECD Rio markers), so the totals are an upper bound; multilateral development banks report only each project's climate component. The 'principal objective or climate component only' row is the stricter measure. Adaptation and mitigation overlap where an activity targets both, so they do not add up to the total. Kenya: USD 1,210.6m in 2022 → USD 2,311.4m in 2024 (+91%); peak USD 2,568.3m in 2023.

Computed by the app: OECD CRS gross disbursements in this scope, 2024 (card E28), all official donors USD 3,651.9m; donors' total net ODA from OECD DAC1 (card E40). Exposed: a donor whose total aid fell more than 10% in the OECD's provisional latest year. Rough estimate method: each donor's 2024 aid in this scope, reduced by the same percentage as its total aid fell from 2024 to 2025 in the OECD's provisional figures, summed over donors that fell more than 10%; donors that did not cut count as unchanged. It assumes each donor cut this country as much as its overall aid; in practice donors protect some countries and cut others harder. The OECD's country figures for 2025 will replace it, usually about a year after the year ends. Only the donors listed on the OECD card are assessed; multilateral donors are not in the OECD's donor totals.

Donor: Germany. Channel of delivery: Central Government (recipient govt.). Recipient: Kenya. Purpose: Upper secondary education. Disbursed USD 4.6m in 2023 to 2024. Description (donor-reported): Despite economic successes with growth averaging 5% over the past decade and a good demographic starting point, Kenya is characterized by high youth unemployment (17 to 40%) and a simultaneous shortage of skilled workers. The creation of high-quality vocational training opportunities for Kenyan youth is therefore central to increasing the employment of young people in Kenya and improving the supply of qualified skilled workers. Against this backdrop, the promotion of vocational education and training, particularly in Africa, is also a key concern for the German government. Therefore, in early 2017, Germany's Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) initiated the Kenyan-German TVET Initiative (KGTI) to promote youth employment in Kenya. The FC measure presented here is the core of this initiative. The FC module aims to develop state vocational schools into centers o

Education: out of school, completion and learning (UNESCO UIS) · UNESCO Institute for Statistics
About this source: UNESCO's statistics institute is the official keeper of the global education goal's figures: who is out of school, who finishes primary and lower secondary school, and how many children can read and do basic maths by the end of primary. The World Bank's education figures are copied from it, usually later.

UNESCO Institute for Statistics, February 2026 Data Release; latest year per measure within the last ten; retrieved 2026-11-08. Out-of-school rates count children of official school age who are not enrolled; completion rates count young people a few years above the final grade's age who finished that level; proficiency shares come from regional and international learning assessments (such as PASEC or PIRLS) taken in the year shown, so they are older and not comparable across assessment types. Years differ by measure: check the year before comparing.

Percentages compare with the 1989-2018 average for the same period. Recent periods use preliminary estimates that are replaced by final data about a month later. 'Dry period' marks regions whose average for the period is under 30 mm, where a percentage says little. Rainfall is one input to harvests and water supply, not a drought declaration. Driest regions first.
