GENDER EQUALITY AND EQUITY FILMS

Silence is Betrayal

Commemorating the St. Kizito Secondary School tragedy that occurred in 1991 in which 19 girls were killed and 71 others raped when the male students went on rampage, this documentary, compiled from archive footage, played a key role as an advocacy tool and helped in lobbying for the Sexual Offences Bill in Kenya through television broadcast and screenings to various targeted interest groups. The Bill was passed by Parliament and became law in July 2006.
