Gender and Education in Kenya and Re-Alignment of Education to the Constitution

Abstract

This paper argues that as education in Kenya is aligned to the Constitution, the need to empower girls and women through education is vital to achieve the Bill of Rights. Kenya as a developing country must be geared towards gender equity thr ough quality of education at all levels. This will entail concerted effort by Government and civi l society through taking an audit of the existing policies and adopting best practic es including resource a llocation and organisation of education.
