Today, Nairobi without Karura Forest is UNIMAGINABLE. This is thanks to everyone who fought hard to protect it. #students #clergy #politicians #civilsociety A true honour to welcome and plant a tree with His Majesty in celebration of my mother, Wangari Mathai. It was the solidarity of so many that led to Karura. I admired their friendship & solidarity with my mother through thick & thin! nation.africa/kenya/blogs-op… #RoyalVisitKenya

Prof Wangari Maathai on a stretcher [ I was assisting others wheel her either into, or out of, court]. She and a few others had been severely beaten by police a few days earlier- still had to ‘appear’ in Court! We shall never forget her sacrifice. ##WangariMaathai80

Shout out to @thekhrc @makaumutua @ItsGeorgeKegoro @hakimorara who did the heavy lifting in ensuring that the colonial government were compelled by the courtsto acknowledge responsibility for “wrongs done”. Thanks to @Paul_Muite , @GitobuImanyara @orengo_james for your support

@KRACare @DicksonOtieno Thanks for promising to take this up. Ukarimu na uungwana wa Kenya kwa Wakenya na Wageni uimarike katika anga zetu, hoteli zetu za kitalii na hata katika mbuga zetu za wanyama!

@DicksonOtieno Hi Dickson. We have taken note of the concerns, and we regret the inconveniences caused. This has been taken up for action to ensure that we provide you with the best service possible. ^JM

With the way KRA is handling arrivals at JKIA, Kenya is going to lose a lot of travelers and a lot of goodwill. You’d think the revenue they collect from harassing arrivals would fund our budget. We are a failed country. We can’t see it yet.

10. We have also rolled out 12 specialised courts to handle Sexual and Gender-Based Violence cases across the country targeting hot spot areas, following the success of our pilot court in Shanzu, Mombasa.

9. The Judiciary launched the Social Transformation through Access to Justice (STAJ) SGBV Court Strategy in June this year to guide the process of rolling out trauma-informed courts that will ensure expeditious and tailor-made justice to survivors.

8. I want to reassure Kenyans that we remain committed to enhancing our efficiency and effectiveness in dealing with SGBV cases from upstream at the police level to downstream after sentencing and reintegration.

7. A proper knowledge of gender dynamics and a compassionate, respectful and trauma-informed approach should be the foundation upon which we build trust with the victims.

6. Further, our frontline teams must adopt Active Case Management methods to identify and mitigate barriers to access to justice including reducing delays in investigations, hearing and determination of cases.

5. We must focus on enhancing our capacity to manage and protect evidence - the irrefutable voice that speaks the truth about an incident. This calls for familiarity with witnesses and proper handling of evidence according to best practice standards.

4. As the guardians of law and order, the efficiency and effectiveness of our interventions as agencies in the justice sector, is the key that bridges the gap between survivors’ trauma and hope for a better tomorrow.

3. This is alarming and unacceptable given the serious toll that SGBV inflicts on survivors. SGBV causes physical, psychological, and emotional harm to our women, men, girls, and boys and often leads to stigma, discrimination and social exclusion.

2. According to the 2014 KNBS ‘Demographic and Health Survey’, 45 per cent of women and girls aged between 15 and 49 have experienced physical violence, while 14 per cent have experienced sexual violence in their lifetime.

1. Delivered the keynote address at the start the inaugural two-day Sexual and Gender-Based Violence National Conference taking place in Nairobi, under the theme ‘Enhancing Administration and Access to Justice for Victims of SGBV.’

It was my pleasure to meet @CJMarthaKoome and discuss future collaboration

Insightful first meeting with @RailaOdinga today on democracy and politics in Kenya, and the historical 🇬🇧 🇰🇪 relationship. I look forward to many more meetings.

Pope Francis has suggested there could be ways to bless same-sex unions, as a big meeting gets underway, where LGBTQ+ Catholics — among other serious topics — are on the agenda. “We cannot be judges who only deny, reject and exclude,” he said in a statement.
