In Kenya the Femicide situation is dire. In 2024 alone, at least 170 women were killed—the highest annual toll on record. Shockingly, recent reports show an average of one woman murdered every day in the past week. Yet despite this crisis, Kenya does not legally recognize femicide as a distinct crime. Without this recognition, these killings are ignored, poorly tracked, and often go unpunished.
Why This Matters?
🔴 No Recognition, No Justice – Femicide is treated as just another homicide, allowing perpetrators to evade accountability.
🔴 A Deadly Pattern We Can’t Ignore – These murders keep happening because the root causes—misogyny and systemic discrimination—are overlooked.
🔴 Naming It Saves Lives – Countries like Mexico, Argentina, and Italy have recognized femicide as a crime, leading to stronger laws, better investigations, and greater protections for women.
Kenya has the chance to be the first African nation to take this critical step—setting a powerful example for the continent and affirming that women’s lives matter.
Our Demands
We call on the Kenyan government to:
✅ Legally define femicide as a distinct crime to ensure proper tracking and accountability.
✅ Strengthen laws and policies to prevent these killings and protect women.
✅ Guarantee thorough investigations and justice for victims.
✅ Increase funding for survivor support services.
We have laws protecting property and money—yet when a woman’s life is stolen for being a woman, the system fails her. This must change.
Justice begins with recognition. Justice begins with us.
Sign this petition today to demand Kenya declare femicide a crime.

Why act as if Malala writing that play for Butere Girls is a problem while majority of us share in the same thought….?Why is it too hard to understand RUTO MUST GO.. When will you stop going to war with these children ?
It’s their future they’re protecting ✌️
I've first converted the document to Word since the owner of the WPS didn't give us the rights to edit, and you have to upgrade on WPS to do that. I was going through it before I generate the audio, and this part took my attention.
Why did Malala use the name Anifa though? 🤔
Guys, this cannot be our story.
Watching a full grown man go to war with children and us doing nothing about it?? No,no,no..This can’t be it✌️✌️RUTO Must GO
Ruto donated 20M to a Church in Roysambu just a day after Citizen TV reported a school in Baringo where students sit on stones under trees. We have a sttupid President.
I know the long shifts and unpaid hours make you question everything.
But Kenya’s healthcare stands because of you—never forget that.
