[Evalyne Amunga @evaamunga]

Inclusion at work is not a favour it's a right, a responsibility, and a pathway to stronger workplaces for everyone

Let's move beyond policy commitments and turn inclusion into a lived reality!

A thread on what's happening 👇

[The National Gender and Equality Commission (NGEC) @NGECKenya]

The Commission continues to champion access to justice and the protection of the rights of persons with disabilities through strategic legal representation and advocacy.

Appearing on behalf of the Commission, Desire Njamwea represented the accused in Republic v. Kennedy Gachioki, where the court received both the Social Inquiry Report and the Psychiatrist Report. The reports confirmed that the accused has had an intellectual disability since birth, with the psychiatrist concluding that the condition is permanent, untreatable, and requires structured care and supervision rather than criminal prosecution.

On the strength of these findings, the commission applied for the withdrawal of the charges, citing significant violations of the accused's constitutional right to a fair trial. The application highlighted the prolonged delay in determining the accused's fitness to stand trial despite multiple medical assessments and High Court directions, as well as procedural irregularities that undermined the administration of justice.

The Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions (ODPP) requested time to seek directions on the application, and the matter is scheduled for mention on 16th September 2026.

The Commission will continue advocating for justice processes that are fair, humane, and responsive to the needs of all Kenyans, particularly those from vulnerable and marginalized groups.

I was honored to share lessons on disability-inclusive climate resilience at the Workshop on Inclusion in Climate Action.

Key takeaway: Women with Disabilities, must have a seat at the table in climate governance & planning.

There is nothing better than seeing community ownership take root!
A year post-project, the Busia County Tuseme Club I established as FAWEK County coordinator is vibrant and leading. Proud is an understatement. ❤️

When Deaf voices are left out of #ClimateAction the consequences are real. #ClimateJustice requires inclusive planning, and meaningful participation of Deaf people.

Honored to coordinate final Virtual Validation Meetings of the Ugandan Engagement Framework (5 Mar 2026), after validating Kenya (24 Feb 2026) & Southern Sudan (5 Feb 2026) frameworks.

Climate justice demands disability inclusion. #ClimateJustice #DisabilityInclusion #IWD2026

[FEDWEN KENYA @FedwenKenya]

Climate change is not just an environmental issue. It is a justice issue.
As heavy rains, and floods hit different parts of Kenya, we must ask ;
Who is being protected?
Who is being left behind?
