Peaceful Electioneering: A Call to Action for Every Kenyan

Elections should bring communities together, not turn neighbours against one another. With election-related violence remaining a serious concern, we all have a responsibility to promote dialogue, tolerance, respect and peaceful participation. Political differences should never be a reason for hostility and violence. On 25th August 2026, we explored what peaceful electioneering means and what practical actions individuals, communities and leaders can take to prevent violence before, during and after elections. Listen in to this conversation with officials from National Cohesion and Integration Commission (NCIC) and National Steering Committee on Peacebuilding and Conflict Management (NSC) to gain a better understanding.
