Commissioner, Dr. Wamalwa Dennis on the rights of Intersex (Ph.D)
“As a commissioner for human rights, I stand before you today to speak on the urgent need to protect and promote the rights of intersex individuals in Kenya. Our society must acknowledge that intersex individuals exist and that they are entitled to the same rights and protections as all other citizens. Together, we must work to end harmful medical practices, address discrimination and violence, and raise awareness to promote understanding and acceptance. It’s time to take action and stand up for intersex rights. Let’s create a more just and inclusive society for all.”
