This is why Kenya\u2019s justice institutions are collaborating to conduct sensitization campaigns on key issues and important legal concepts. Such campaigns can involve building skills, raising awareness, challenging myths and misconceptions, or changing behaviour. A united approach is harmonizing efforts between justice agencies and maximising the impact of campaigns. Sensitization activities are often led at the regional and local level by Court Users\u2019 Committees (CUCs). Formal training to build the skills and knowledge of those working in the justice sector is complemented by outreach to citizens and the media.<\/p>\n

The Bail and Bond Implementation Committee is driving a national campaign to sensitize justice sector stakeholders, the public and the media on bail and bond and citizen\u2019s rights. The campaign is built around Kenya\u2019s Bail and Bond Policy Guidelines.<\/p>\n
