Ann Nyagah | Overcoming Invisibility

Ann Nyagah is a Kenyan economist and public finance specialist with nearly a decade of experience across Kenya's national government institutions. As a Young Changemaker she points out that Africa loses billions every year to climate-related disasters, yet when the national budget is written, climate risk is essentially invisible. She argues that this is not a data problem or a technical limitation: it is a structural design failure in how African governments plan, budget, and spend — and it is a failure that can be fixed.
