@SirAlexas It is because the judge needs to listen to any mitigating factors that a convicted person and the victims family may have. For example, a 7months pregnant mother may be sentenced differently from a person with no family. It gives the judge the opportunity to be humane.
If you claim to support human rights yet can’t bring yourself to show solidarity with those fighting for their liberty in Iran, you’ve revealed yourself. You don’t give a damn about people being oppressed and brutalised so long as it’s being done by the enemies of your enemies.
Together, we can better promote responsible business practices across #Africa! 🤝
Today, key stakeholders and colleagues gathered in Brussels to discuss "Business and Human Rights in Africa - Advancing Responsible Business"
Stay tuned for the outcome document of the workshop
Today I paid a courtesy call to CEO of @Kakuzi_Plc in Murang’a. I was impressed to note the role the company is playing in value addition, aggregation and community engagement. They have fully integrated smallholder farmers into their ecosystem.
What impressed me most is that Kakuzi has a Human Rights Awareness Manager with a key mandate of engaging all employees and stakeholders to ensure that their rights are guaranteed and protected.
We also spoke of the things Kakuzi needs to focus on to become a Murang’a Company rather than a company in Murang’a. Let’s grow together.
@Kakuzi_Plc Human Rights Manager Ms. Wangechi shares their Operational Grievance Mechanism with @HakiKNCHR & stakeholders during a 2 day workshop to review model guidelines for OGMs under the National Action Plan on Business nd Human Rights @thekhrc@BaseTitanium@kenya_chamber
@BrownsFoodCo Kindly do a wider investigation and not specific to an incident. This despicable act shows that there are more innate issues to be addressed.
Through her role as the Gender and Human Rights Manager, Stella Wangechi is able to #breakthebias by advocating for elevation of women's status both within and outside the organization
