The Constitution of Kenya (2010) has provided the means for confronting new challenges to evictions and access to justice faced by vulnerable groups such as the residents of Mukuru. New jurisprudence has begun to emerge, addressing the human rights implications of evictions.

Advocacy planning is a step-by-step process of analysis and debate that leads to the creation of an advocacy strategy plan and its implementation.
