Kenyans continue to raise their voices, calling on the government to ensure inclusion in access to healthcare for persons with disabilities. No one should be left behind. #DisabilityRightsKE #EqualityinHealth

Catch Victor Ndede tomorrow at 7am on Capital Fm 98.4 as he talks about strengthening data governance in Kenya. #DataProtectionKE

'There’s so much going on in the world right now, and so much going on with data as well. We have demonstrated that it is possible to build rights- based data governance frameworks on the continent. But we now have to move to a place where data governance is implemented.' - Al Kags #EADataGov26

'East Africa is at a critical juncture. As rapid digitization transforms our continent, the East Africa Data Governance Conference is a dedicated space for dialogue; a place to exchange ideas and collaborate on strengthening data governance across the region.' - Victor Ndede #EADataGov26

At the #EADataGov26 join us live on YouTube at youtube.com/live/SIyyRee...

“This is just the beginning, and as young advocates getting into the profession, it’s important to shed the notion that practice is crowded and endeavor to have more engagements where such conversations happen and allow young minds to traverse and learn.”- Aseso Omollo #DataProtectionKE

“As lawyers, the reality is that Technology is here to stay & grow. This may be presumed as a takeover of the role of advocates, but it doesn’t do away with the key role that Advocates play in the legal space; it, in fact, brings up new opportunities.”- Mugambi Laibuta

“In the data governance space, learn the substance before chasing the title. For a young lawyer at the onset of navigating this space, you need to be comfortable being early in the conversation and being wrong, but humble enough to ask for help and seek mentorship.”- Philip Wasilwa

“Technology and Human Rights is viewed externally in a narrow scope. However, it entails more than the usual conversation on AI & Data Protection.

We are with young lawyers this afternoon unpacking technology, human rights, and data governance, exploring how privacy, surveillance, digital ID systems, and online civic space intersect with constitutional protections. #DigitalRightsKE #DataProtectionKE

Workplace sexual harassment isn’t a HR issue, it’s a crime. Survivors deserve protection, not parallel systems that fail them. Read this week’s #AmnestyReads on why Kenya must bridge the gap between boardrooms and courtrooms. www.amnestykenya.org/boardroom-to... #EndSexualHarassment

30 days have lapsed and the Gender Cabinet Secretary is yet to present the Cabinet Memo to implement the GBV Taskforce report. No more delays. #EndFemicideKE www.amnestykenya.org/missed-deadl...

After representation by Ian Mbotela Mwaura, Kabata, and John Maina, the High Court released Mwabili H. Mwagodi on personal bond and directed him to report to DCI within 7 days. We thank the Judiciary and urge review of Interpol Red Notices issued without warrants.

The Council of Governors’ boycott of Senate CPAC summons threatens accountability in Kenya. Allegations of misconduct must be independently investigated, but they cannot justify evading constitutional oversight. Articles 96 and 125 are clear: oversight of public resources is mandatory, not optional.

We convened 25 civil society partners for a training on Safeguarding Children’s Data in the Digital Age, strengthening skills on Kenya’s data protection laws, child‑safe data governance, and preventing online harm. Together, we’re building a safer digital space. #DigitalRightsKE #DataProtectionKE
