Child Protector in Kenya

Kenya is home to 54 million people – half of them younger than 20 years of age. Elizabeth Kadzo is a primary school teacher in the Mombasa area, and a member of the Giriyama tribal grouping. She has also long made it her calling to rescue children from abuse. She co-founded the community-based organization PACYA – which stands for Protection Against Child and Youth Abuse. Diana Wanyonyi interviewed her for WINGS. NOTE that this interview contains descriptions of sexual abuse.
