Media plays a crucial role in shaping public discourse on Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights (SRHR) across the country.
A report by the Kenya Human Rights Commission (KHRC) and Planned Parenthood Global says there are glaring gaps in SRHR coverage, particularly in less-urbanised counties.
The report says despite increased access to information, the a tendency toward sensationalism and the prioritisation of click-worthy content.
This often hinders comprehensive coverage of critical issues such as SRHR.
It says media houses should be motivated to deliver more balanced, insightful, and proactive coverage of SRHR issues across all counties.
