Kenya becomes the first African country to count intersex people during their census. @KNBStats are requesting parents who have intersex children to tell the enumerators. This will help our government come up with safeguarding policies for intersex people. #IntersexCensusKe

In 2017, the National Police Service, sanding orders, paragraph 15.4 also provides for the protection of the rights of intersex persons upon arrest and detention. They should be detained separately.
