Today, CIPIT conducted a training on Strengthening Responsible Use and Governance of Artificial Intelligence in Political Party Processes for @ORPPKenya
The training builds the knowledge needed to think through how AI may be used within ORPP, what responsible use should look like, and what governance, data protection, privacy, and human rights considerations should inform that use.

As we look back on these moments, we are excited to invite fresh perspectives for the DPGSK Annual Conference and Research Day 2026 under the theme: 'Data Governance, Elections and Information Integrity'.

At #DataTamasha2026 under the theme 'Kujenga Na Data' , together with @StrathCIPIT, we facilitated a session on 'The Good Guys' Dilemma ', a conversation challenging CSOs to reflect on their role as major data handlers. The discussion highlighted that data protection must go beyond tick-box compliance and become part of everyday operations, that trust remains the most valuable asset for organizations serving communities, and that Data Protection Impact Assessments should be viewed as Human Rights Impact Assessments because protecting personal data also protects dignity, safety, and the right to privacy.
