Kenya has come under renewed international pressure to address a wide range of human rights violations as the United Nations Human Rights Council issues recommendations during the country's latest Universal Periodic Review (UPR) in May 2025.

The recommendations, presented during the 49th session of the Human Rights Council in Geneva, reflect growing concerns about Kenya's commitment to upholding fundamental rights and freedoms.
