Pushed to the peripheries of nationhood Kenya’s minorities are now on the cusp of inclusion
Speaking during a consultative meeting with members of Turkana Community in Nakuru, Lodoyi admitted that though Articles 56 and 26o of the Constitution recognised minority and marginalised groups, progress had stalled due to absence of a guiding policy.
Interests of Kenyan communities tagged minority, marginalised to get priority coverage in state media
The purpose of the meeting with the PS BT, is to explore strategic partnership between Minorities and Marginalised Affairs Unit (MMAU) and the Department of Broadcasting and Telecommunications under the Ministry of ICT and Broadcasting with a focus on expanding broadcasting and digital development initiatives to underserved communities, and ensuring equitable visibility, access and participation of minority and Marginalized population in national media and innovation programmes.
