Chief Justice Martha Koome
By MKT Correspondent
Chief Justice Martha Koome has commissioned a multi-sectoral working group which aims to prioritise access to Justice on environmental and climate change related matters in Nairobi County.
The group aims to incorporate green justice principles, embed environmental sustainability into operations, procedures, and decision-making processes, including administrative and judicial actions.
The group comprises key stakeholders in the environment and planning sectors and is committed to putting people at the centre of all actions.
The CJ praised the working group for incorporating Alternative Justice Systems (AJS) in resolving disputes filed in the division, which has proven instrumental in deepening access to justice and promoting reconciliation.
The initiative was a direct outcome of the commitments made at the ELC@10 Conference held in December 2022.
The working group, headed by the Head of the EP Division Nairobi, aims to develop comprehensive guidelines and best practices for fair and efficient resolution processes, educate the public and stakeholders about their rights and responsibilities, and promote inclusivity by engaging with diverse constituencies such as women, children, the elderly, persons with disabilities, indigenous and minority communities, and residents of low-income areas.
