Critical Biodiversity Areas In East Africa

This map illustrates East Africa’s principal biodiversity hotspots—areas of exceptional ecological importance and species richness that underpin the region’s natural capital. These landscapes sustain critical ecosystem services, including water regulation, carbon storage, and habitat connectivity. The spatial distribution highlights where conservation priorities intersect with economic activity, providing valuable insight for nature-related risk assessment and TNFD-aligned decision-making.
To use the platform, first map the location of your proposed project or investment using the mapping tool in the top-right corner of the map. You can then use the search panel to assess its proximity to critical biodiversity areas.

Become a TNFD Adopter

Despite Kenya’s vast natural capital and immense potential for nature-positive action, only five institutions have so far adopted the TNFD framework, led by the banking sector. Globally, more than 500 organizations have joined this movement, reflecting a shared commitment to the Global Biodiversity Framework’s goal of halting and reversing biodiversity loss by 2030 and living in harmony with nature by 2050. As a GBF signatory, Kenya is committed to restoring ecosystems, protecting Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities (IPLCs), and mobilizing finance for biodiversity conservation. Join the movement toward nature-positive finance by registering as a TNFD adopter:
