The National Gender and Equality Commission (NGEC) has embarked on a nationwide sensitisation programme aimed at addressing increased cases of Gender-Based Violence (GBV).
The programme, which will include a special forum for men, is set to begin in Murang'a County before moving to other parts of the country.
NGEC Commissioner Mbithuka Nzomo on Tuesday noted that the initiative will involve setting up sensitisation camps in every county.
These camps, he added, "will engage communities about effective policies and interventions to combat GBV cases in the country." He observed that a two-day sanitisation forum in Murang'a will kick off on Wednesday at Maragua and feature discussions with the community and especially men from the county. "We will explore strategies and interventions to reduce GBV cases.
