Women and girls in Kenya face disproportionate mental health risks from climate change due to caregiving roles, economic dependence, and vulnerability to gender-based violence during climate-related crises. This study draws on case studies from drought-affected regions in Kitui and Mandera, highlighting how climate-induced resource scarcity fuels domestic tensions, intimate partner violence, and increased anxiety among women. Data also reveal heightened stress among mothers unable to provide adequate food and water for their children. The paper argues for gender-sensitive climate-mental health strategies, including safe water access, women's empowerment initiatives, and psychosocial support embedded in humanitarian responses.
