Abstract

We are pleased to present the seventh volume of the Kabarak Law
Journal of Law and Ethics (KJLE), which focuses on the Kenyan Children
Act of 2022.
In the lead up to this publication, Kabarak University in collaboration
with Save the Children (Kenya and Madagascar) successfully organised
a hybrid half-day conference to commemorate the Day of the African
Child on 16 June 2023. The conference brought together child law
scholars and practitioners to reflect on the theme ‘The rights of the child
in the digital environment’. Professor Robert Nanima, Expert Member
of the African Committee of Experts on the Rights and Welfare of the
Child (ACERWC), and Justice Heston Nyaga, Judge of High Court of
Kenya, were among the chief guests. We are proud to publish Professor
Nanima’s keynote address in this volume.
