Status of Gender Desks at Police Stations in Kenya: A Case Study of Nairobi Province

Author(s):  Institute of Economic Affairs

Abstract

Gender-Based Violence (GBV) is a widespread and socially tolerated human rights violation that takes the form of domestic violence, sexual and psychological abuse. It is emerging as a serious global health, human rights and development issue and it is a symptom of gender inequalities. According to WHO, it is a serious cause of death and injury among women and children yet it is accepted by customs and thrives on impunity.
