Advocacy Statement for Kenya’s Universal Periodic Review (UPR): 4th UPR Cycle – 1st May 2025
Kenya has made commendable progress in advancing Sexual Reproductive Health and Rights (SRHR) through constitutional reforms, legislative measures, and policy frameworks. However, significant challenges remain, particularly in ensuring access to adolescent SRHR, improving maternal health outcomes, and expanding access to safe abortion.
As Kenya undergoes its Universal Periodic Review (UPR), we urge the international community to hold its government accountable for its commitments to SRHR and recommend actionable and concrete steps to address persistent gaps in law, policy, and practice.
