Across Africa
The Africa Research and Impact Network (ARIN) is a pan-African research organisation that strengthens the capacity of African researchers and policymakers to generate, share, and use evidence for sustainable development. ARIN operates a Science-Policy Fellowship Programme engaging members from 36 African countries, with 30% drawn from government and policy institutions.
ARIN Strategic Plan 2026–2030
ARIN's LAMA Platform Engaged in Kenya's National Climate Monitoring, Evaluation, Reporting & Learning Initiative
Kenya's Ministry of Environment, Climate Change, Natural Resources and Forestry (MECCF) has formed a landmark multi-partner initiative co-led with SouthSouthNorth (SSN), the Climate and Development Knowledge Network (CDKN), and the World Resources Institute (WRI), with technical support from the African Group of Negotiators Expert Support (AGNES), and with the strategic engagement of the Africa Research and Impact Network (ARIN) through its Locally Led Adaptation Metrics for Africa (LAMA) Platform. Together, this coalition is co-developing a standardised indicators handbook and a digital Monitoring, Evaluation, Reporting, and Learning (MERL) tool. The MERL tool will leverage these indicators to strengthen data collection, analysis, and reporting ultimately promoting greater transparency, accountability, and "Informed decision-making across Kenya's climate actions".
