Following the announcement by the Chief Justice of the Republic of Kenya of his intention to establish an International and Organised Crimes Division of the Kenyan High Court, the Wayamo Foundation organised a forum with community leaders from Kisumu to discuss the IOCD and how to improve access to justice in the community.
Kisumu is the principal city of Western Kenya and is located on the shores of Lake Victoria. It was one of the areas affected by Kenya’s 2007-08 post-election violence.
