The East African Law Journal is a peer-reviewed publication that provides a platform for scholarly engagement with contemporary legal and social issues in Africa. This Special Issue on Gender, Equality, and Human Rights brings together leading voices to examine questions of family law, property rights, customary law, women’s participation in peace processes, and broader debates on justice and equality. Through critical analysis and diverse perspectives, the journal advances dialogue on how law shapes, and is shaped by, gendered experiences in Kenya and across the region.
