Kenya: A child’s best interests are of paramount importance in every matter concerning the child. The same is provided in Article 53 of the Constitution of Kenya which among others grants every child the right to a name and nationality from birth; free and compulsory basic education; basic nutrition, shelter and health care; protection from abuse, neglect, harmful cultural practices, all forms of violence, inhuman treatment and punishment, and more importantly to parental care and protection.
