Kenya's journey toward a more just, inclusive and democratic society has greatly benefited from the tireless work of journalists who have kept citizens informed even in challenging and sometimes dangerous conditions.
Journalists play a critical role in exposing corruption, reporting on human rights violations, highlighting the struggles of the disenfranchised, and holding public and private institutions accountable. However, such work is not without risk, as those who dare to shine a light on the shortcomings of powerful entities often face significant reprisals.
Journalists and human rights organisations have raised concerns about the rising cases of violence against them. Despite the constitutional guarantees of press freedom, journalists continue to be targeted, assaulted, and even killed while pursuing stories that may make those in those in power uncomfortable.
