The Kenya National Commission on Human Rights (KNCHR) has called for comprehensive reforms to combat rising corruption, which it identifies as a major threat to human rights in Kenya, despite some progress in anti-corruption efforts.

• Corruption remains widespread, with 2,848 human rights complaints reported between December 2024 and December 2025.
• The KNCHR recommends strengthening whistleblower protection, fully implementing the Conflict of Interest Act, 2025, and adopting a Human Rights-Based Approach to fighting corruption.
• The Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) secured preservation orders worth approximately Sh1.2 billion in the past year, but Kenya's ranking of 121 out of 180 on the global Corruption Perception Index highlights persistent challenges.
