Overview<\/h3>\n
\n
\n
\n

Join us for an informal conversation with Wangechi Grace Kahuria on defending the human rights of youth movements in Kenya.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

In this edition of the Fireside Peace Chats (FPC) series, we welcome Wangechi Grace Kahuria, a Kenyan civil rights activist and the Executive Director of IMLU<\/a>, a Health, Governance and Human Rights Organisation involved in forensic documentation, litigation, medical and psychosocial rehabilitation of survivors of torture, and monitoring the government’s adherence to its human rights commitments. Wangechi is currently participating in the Shelter City initiative<\/a>, a global movement for the protection of human rights defenders initiated by Justice & Peace.<\/a><\/p>\n

In 2024, young people were at the forefront of a wave of massive demonstrations against rising tax bills in Kenya. Kenyan authorities reacted with a brutal clampdown and have since continued to intimidate, harass, abduct and torture peaceful protestors, members of human rights organisations and other government critics. Drawing from her work at IMLU and her attendance at several UN sessions in Geneva, Wangechi will reflect on her experience with supporting youth activists in Kenya, the challenges she faces in her field, and pathways to justice for victims of severe human rights abuses.<\/p>\n

Come ready to listen, reflect, and exchange insights on accountability, justice, and the protection of youth political participation in the face of democratic decline.<\/p>\n
