Nyando Human Rights Advocacy and Development Network

Last month, on April 17th and 18th, 2026, the Nyahuriaden Social Justice Center was proudly represented by Clare Akoth and Loryn Kibet at the two-day Digital and Personal Security Training in Kisumu, facilitated by the Independent Medico-Legal Unit (IMLU).

As human rights defenders, keeping our communications, data, and communities safe is our utmost priority. From utilizing secure tools like Signal, separating our work and personal gadgets, enabling two-step verification, and practicing strict device hygiene, we learned highly practical ways to protect our information. We also analyzed the realities of community profiling and negative narratives that defenders face on the ground.

We are excited to share these critical insights and our drafted security enhancement plan with all our SJC members during our upcoming session this month! 🛡️✊🏾
