Defending Journalists: A Guide for Legal Protection of Journalists

Despite constitutional and international protections, Kenyan journalists face complex challenges. Threats, harassment, and legal battles silence critical voices. Accessing information is complex, and misinformation clouds the media landscape. Technological advancements raise new questions about intellectual property rights. Most concerning, female journalists endure entrenched cultural biases and violence.

Recognizing these threats, the Kenya Union of Journalists, with support from UNESCO, created "Defending Journalists: A Guide for Legal Protection of Journalists." This practical tool empowers journalists with knowledge of their legal rights and remedies.
