Abstract
The authors provide an open-sourced dataset which presents perceived values and socioeconomic indicators collected in Siaya, a rural county in Kenya, between 2022. The data was obtained from 300 surveys and interviews conducted in 6 sub-counties across 11 villages. Socioeconomic data were collected with a special focus on climate change vulnerability. Information on housing, health, water accessibility and usage, electricity accessibility and usage, extreme weather events, community service, and information accessibility were mapped across survey questions. The User Perceived Value (UPV) game, a perception-based surveying approach, was applied to understand local communities’ needs and perceptions of climate change challenges.
This study is part of the Climate Compatible Growth (CCG) programme.
