The Kenyan Constitutional Reform Process: A Case Study on the work of FIDA Kenya in Securing Women’s Rights
The case study is organized
into chronologically-based categories of work based on the different phases
of the reform process. It suggests that making the demand for women’s rights
within high-level processes of legal reform entails a huge range of tasks and
skills, which include experience in legal analysis and the drafting of law, media
strategy, political networking, community education, and intensive planning
in often unpredictable situations. While none of this would surprise legal
activists, and organizations already committed to securing women’s rights
within the law, the level and demands of the work suggest that we cannot
ignore the need to continue to document the nature of women’s right work in
the legal terrain.
