Excellent exchange with Deputy Inspector-General Douglas Kanja of National Police Service-Kenya. We look forward to further partnership on #HumanRights in policing, including to address #SGBV and violence against women.
'Without women at the tables of power, there can be no peace. No justice. No democracy.
Without women – in all their diversity – there is absolutely no progress at all.'
