A hybrid library has been launched at the Kamae Girls Borstal Institution as the State Department for Correctional Services moves to enhance its reformation and rehabilitation efforts targeting young offenders.
Supported by the International Children’s Aid Network, the learning centre will provide both physical and digital learning resources for beneficiaries, including those from the neighbouring Kamiti Youth Correction and Training Centre.
Speaking during the launch, Acting Probation and Aftercare Service Secretary Shadrack Kavutai, who represented the Principal Secretary, said the resource centre will greatly enhance rehabilitation efforts by providing learners with access to a wide array of educational resources that promote a conducive environment for learning.
“Education remains one of the most powerful instruments of empowerment and rehabilitation available within the correctional landscape,” he observed.
He noted that the department is increasingly focusing on creating opportunities that facilitate personal growth, character development and social reintegration, adding that the establishment of the facility aligns perfectly with the restoration and reintegration agenda.
While thanking the International Children’s Aid Network for its continued support, Kavutai said the positive outcomes of the collaboration demonstrate the transformative power of education and the importance of strategic partnerships in correctional programming.
According to Deputy Commissioner General of Prisons in charge of Technical Services Jane Kirii, the launch of the latest resource centre demonstrates the Kenya Prisons Service’s commitment to empowering young offenders through quality education and personal growth.
International Children’s Aid Network co-founder Dr. Marc Hauser reaffirmed his commitment to supporting the initiative, noting that exposure to books opens the mind to curiosity and that the hybrid library will open a world of alternatives for the beneficiaries.
Education and Training Director at the State Department, Dr. Margaret Mutuma, described the development as a testament to the department’s commitment to positively transforming the lives of children in conflict with the law through education.
Parents in Ambira Secondary School in Siaya have raised an alarm about the increased cases of sodomy within the school. Parents say most of their boys are coming home sodomized and bruised with the school administration saying the matter has run out of hand. 🤔🤔. What is that headteacher still doing in the school even?
You reach a stage of loving yourself when you grasp that if they hurt you to such a degree, they don’t *deserve* your hyper-analyzations and humanizing. That’s just another form of ppl pleasing bc it’s you coming up with excuses. Boundaries are boundaries- end of
Last year my cousin was killed in school we still can't even trace what happened. I almost walked naked.
There is no moment a child dies in this country and i don't think of him.
Everything that had to fail for us to end up with a dead boy.
In silence the grief swallows me.
@Mwika2016 I am drained and can't assemble today with the rest of the People in the streets. Work on child rights takes one to a deep fatigue you barely have strenghth bouncing back from.
I was working with the red cross when the Kyanguli fire happened. The morning after the fire we went to pick up bodies. I removed severed limbs of kids that tried to escape through the roof. The dormitory door had been chained from outside. At the said door, was a pile of bodies
مشهد مرعب في روسيا، مجموعة اطفال كانوا يلعبون امام المنزل جاء الجار اليكسي (44 عام) واخذ فتاه وحملها ذاهب بها للداخل وهي تصرخ
وهنا شجاعة صديقها الولد: ما تخلى عنها وقاوم وامسك الباب وقام بالصراخ حتى سمعته امرأة تدعى يوليا كانت تمر بالصدفه بالسيارةوقفت وانقذت الفتاه في اخر لحظةوتم القبض على اليكسي
Yesterday those fathers were being 'handled' because they were the only ones reacting. What if every parent there was screaming? Sitting down? Who would they handle? Si mtoto wako but ni mtoto wa jamii. That whole just looking and filming people at their lowest irks me
During the Moi Girls fire I was shocked that parents were seeing the dorms for the first time. This fake ass policy no parents going to dorms needs to be fought by all PTAs and parents.
🇮🇳🩸👩🏽🌾Les travailleuses de la canne à sucre en Inde SE FONT RETIRER l’utérus pour ne plus manquer une journée de travail.
Dans le district de Beed (Maharashtra), des ouvrières de la canne à sucre subissent des hystérectomies pour ÉVITER LES ABSENCES liées aux règles, aux grossesses ou aux fausses couches. Dans le système de travail « jodi », les couples sont surendettés et TRAVAILLENT jusqu’à 14 HEURES PAR JOUR, sans congés ni protections, poussant certaines femmes à voir cette opération comme une solution pour continuer à travailler.
Malgré des enquêtes menées en 2019 révélant plus de 13 000 HYSTÉRECTOMIES dans le district de Beed et des promesses de réformes, les militants dénoncent un manque de changements concrets. Les conditions de travail extrêmes, le MANQUE D’HYGIÈNE et la pression de certains médecins FAVORISENT ces opérations.
Les autorités locales, sous pression médiatique, ont lancé de nouvelles enquêtes et PROMETTENT DES MESURES, mais les activistes estiment que le système reste inchangé.

I’ve read about 3 kids who have been killed and that’s just in the last 24 hours! It is genuinely very alarming how unsafe the country has become. wtf is happening ?
A convo has to be heard and proper measures taken to ensure safety of the children in this country.
