βA functional GBV rescue centre should have clear protocols and SOPs that guide how a survivor is received, supported, referred and safely exits the facility. For child survivors, safeguarding must be paramount. Access to a survivor cannot be left to informal arrangements or allow anyone to simply walk in and take a child survivor without proper verification, documentation and protection procedures.β β Dorothy Okemo, Access to Medicines Platform (AtMP)
This statement was made during a media interview at the High-Level GBV Accountability Meeting in Vihiga County, where stakeholders examined gaps in the countyβs GBV prevention and response systems.
The discussion highlighted the need for operational and functional survivor support centres, with adequate security, clear SOPs and strong safeguarding mechanisms, particularly for child survivors.
The meeting also raised concerns about delays in forensic investigations and evidence processing, which can contribute to delays in advancing GBV cases and accessing justice.

The internet can be a powerful space for connection, expression and community, but it can also become a tool for harassment, intimidation and harm.
For key populations, online safety is a human rights issue. We must challenge digital violence, protect one another, report harmful behaviour and build online spaces where everyone can participate without fear.
Safety should extend beyond our physical spaces. It belongs online too.

In Kenya, #women with #disabilities are still sterilised without consent. In East Africa, three times more likely. Globally, the UN calls it a rights violation.
#DisabilityPrideMonth demands:
1οΈβ£ End forced sterilisation.
2οΈβ£ Accessible #SRHR in every county.
3οΈβ£ Scrap early marriages.

A room full of feminists. β¨
Technology alone doesn't create change, people do.
Yesterday's @AWID Membersβ Meetup was a reminder of the power of community, collaboration and feminist movements working towards a more just world.

Connected health systems create better outcomes. When health information can flow safely across platforms, providers can access the right information at the right time, patients experience improved care, and health resources are managed more effectively.

At Pollicy, we use zines as a creative outlet and also as research outputs.
Zines let us hold self expression, storytelling, and feminist knowledge in one place, outside the usual academic formats.
This clip breaks down what zines are and how you can use them: as art, as protest, as personal reflection, as documentation and more!
