Women’s Rights Kenya Enabling the realization of women’s rights and actualizing the Bottom-up Economic Transformation Agenda (BETA) plan as well as the implementation of the Women’s Charter.
OWRA The Office of the Women’s Rights Advisor (OWRA) was established as part of a commitment by His Excellency the President to advance the women's agenda. The journey began in June 2022, when the President pledged his dedication to addressing issues affecting women and girls. After the election, this commitment was fulfilled with the establishment of OWRA in November 2022. The office is domiciled under the Executive Office of the President and its primary mandate is to advise the President on safeguarding women’s rights.
OWRA is tasked with coordinating the implementation of the Women’s Charter, a key component of the President’s strategy to address the needs of 50.5% of Kenya’s population—women and girls. This initiative aims to close the gender gaps that continue to hold back women and girls from realizing their full rights. OWRA works to promote their rights and address inequalities in society, utilizing local, regional, and global instruments to advance these goals.
