The Catholic Justice & Peace Commission: Election booklet

Twaweza is supporting the Kenya Episcopal Conference (KEC)'s Catholic Justice and Peace Commission to develop a new, popular booklet on leadership and integrity that seeks to challenge Kenyans’ definition of a good leader ahead of the 2012 General Elections. The booklet, which adopts an incisive story-telling approach with colourfully done professional artwork, will be pitched to stimulate public imagination and debate, and encourage citizen action for accountable leadership in their areas.

Language used, actions and attire of characters are done in a manner that safeguards religious norms and democratic values, is inclusive of all faiths and does not cause offense. Emphasis is on holding current leaders accountable, electing good leaders during elections, and on agency and responsibility on the part of citizens; rather than just only “complaining” about their leaders.
