I had the pleasure of hearing USAID Administrator Samantha Power’s remarks on USAID’s evolving strategy for supporting America’s foreign policy. That was followed by an insightful fireside chat with NBC News Chief Foreign Affairs Correspondent Andrea Mitchell. Hosted by the Center for Global Development. Very informative and helpful to get the strategic overview.

The second day of the online child safety roundtable brought together representatives from the Kenya Children Assembly, Government agencies, tech companies , CSOs under the Online CSO forum and Joining Forces Alliance to address critical issues around online child safety. Building on the insights shared on Day 1, the discussions highlighted key concerns raised by children, such as their underrepresentation in the design of child-friendly technology products, the increasing online risks faced by boys, the growing challenge of internet addiction, and inadequate surveillance of harmful online content. On Day 2, stakeholders delved deeper into the urgent need to heighten regulations and fully adapt and implement policies that safeguard children online. The conversation emphasized the importance of addressing gaps in legislation, regulation, and awareness creation to ensure comprehensive online protection. The roundtable was attended by representatives from the Directorate of Children Services,Communications Authority of Kenya ,National Council on the Administration of Justice, Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions Kenya, KICTANet Safaricom PLC Data Alma KeNIC TLD LudiqueWorks Akili Network and CSOs under the Online CSO forum.
