Gender

Overview

Kenya’s constitution (2010) recognizes women, youth, persons with disabilities and ethnic minorities as special groups deserving of constitutional protection. Hence, all spheres/faces of the diocese operations should reflect this requirement- whether in employment, pastoral appointments, intakes in diocese-run schools, buildings architecture (to provide for the persons with disabilities). Uptake of the gender equity requirement should happen across all faces/departments of CDK with clear mechanisms of implementation to realize the gender constitutional provisions. To this effect, the Catholic Diocese of Kitale has a Gender department which is currently headed by Rev. Sr. Joan Muasya as the Diocesan Gender Coordinator. The office coordinates all activities related to the CMA and CWA associations.
