Kenya’s Parliament revoked the GCA’s diplomatic privileges over a technicality, sparking concerns about its impact on international organizations.
Kenya’s Parliament nullified diplomatic privileges for the Global Center for Adaptation (GCA), a climate research agency in Nairobi, citing a legal technicality involving a Cabinet Secretary’s absence in 2025.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs criticized the move, saying the privileges were lawfully granted and that Parliament acted without consulting the ministry, violating constitutional procedures.
While the GCA’s operations continue unaffected, officials warn the decision may deter other international organizations from establishing offices in Kenya, undermining the country’s goal to become a regional multilateral hub.
A revised legal notice will be submitted to Parliament in compliance with the Privileges and Immunities Act.
