Testimonial by L. Muthoni Wanyeki, Executive Director Kenya Human Rights Commission (KHRC) and Columnist, the East African

The Africa Centre for Open Governance (AfriCOG)'s investigative journalism fellowship not only acknowledges the centrality of investigative journalism to accountability and transparency but also, more importantly, the limited capacities and resources available for the same within Kenya's media. By providing individual journalists with not only the financing to pursue a story of interest, but also input on the research and writing of that story, the fellowship is helping to build a pool of journalists able and willing to play that role. As a resource person for the fellowship, I found the choice of stories and the manner in which they were approached both interesting and useful ...as I hope, will the public, when the stories are ultimately published. I wish the fellowship every success moving forward.
