As one of Africa’s leaders on internet uptake, recording the highest internet penetration rate in Africa in 2020, Kenya’s laws are particularly important in protecting users against online sexual exploitation and abuse (OSEA). Among a population of 47.6 million, there are approximately 41.5 million internet subscribers, and those numbers continue to increase.
Reporting of OSEA remains a challenge in Kenya, making it difficult to show a clear statistical picture of the occurrences of OSEA and to address and eradicate the behaviours.
