Today on the Star newspaper !
Yesterday, during #HRDAcademy2025, Defenders Coalition launched a new report “Trends in Civic Space in Kenya :An Assessment.”
The report examines how Kenya’s civic space is evolving ,highlighting both the opportunities and challenges faced by non-state actors, key stakeholders, and policymakers at local, national, regional, and global levels.
It also captures perceptions from the public, human rights defenders, CSOs, and PBOs on the state of civic space and their role in protecting it, as well as how duty bearers are responding.
This is a key moment in understanding where we stand and what must be done to safeguard civic space in Kenya. Read the full report here https://t.co/x5LX0RWEeq

Our journey for gender equality continues next week in @LaikipiaCountyG !
We'll be holding a gender policies meeting to unpack the National Care Policy.
A key focus will be on unpaid care work, what the community thinks, and how media can effectively spotlight these stories.
Unfortunately, the police have revoked the acknowledgedment letter that okayed today's protest on the basis that we cannot include or talk about #TheKCB11. We recognize this as an attempt to suppress dissent & refuse to give up! #FreeTheKCB11#StopEACOP!
