The government has pledged to accelerate the implementation of disability inclusion laws and policies in a renewed effort to guarantee dignity, equality and economic empowerment for persons with disabilities across the country.
Speaking during the National Disability Dialogue 2026, Principal Secretary for Social Protection Joseph Motari said Kenya had made significant progress in strengthening legal protections for persons with disabilities, but emphasized that real transformation would depend on effective implementation of the laws.

“This Dialogue has grown steadily since 2023 into Kenya’s premier platform for moving disability inclusion forward because it responds to a clear need,” said Motari.
The annual National Disability Dialogue brings together government agencies, development partners, civil society organizations, private sector players and organizations representing persons with disabilities to discuss challenges and opportunities in advancing inclusion in Kenya.
