My name is Josephine Waruguru Kiguru, I am a Lawyer by profession working for Child Fund Kenya and based in Nanyuki, Kenya. Child Fund Kenya is a non profitable organization whose mandate is to improve the well-being of children and to enhance opportunities for the development of their potential. It values, protects and advance the worth and rights of children. My work entails teaching parents and children on Human Rights and Parental Responsibilities and making follow up on any case of abuse or neglect. Teaching the communities and creating workshops on sensitization of Gender-Based Violence, Human Rights, Land issues, Alternative Dispute Resolutions and any other legal issues. I also visit and train Focus groups on VS&l (Voluntary Savings & Loaning), Women Empowerment activities which includes Income Generating Activities and doing follow ups on the same. I do research and make presentations on topics that help in Capacity Building.

Social Media is a good tool for my work because people will obtain information, education, news and other data from electronic media. One thing about social media is that it’s generally available to the public at little or no cost. Social Media is a form of marketing therefore; I will convince people of my intentions, knowledge, and expertise in a specific area of my work by providing valuable and accurate information on an ongoing basis. It will also help researchers and trainers in sensitization especially on matters to do with Children’s Rights and
Gender –Based Violence.
