We collaborated with the Kenya Editors’ Guild on a media and governance campaign, and Zubeidah Kananu’s leadership made all the difference. She brings integrity, empathy, and clarity to every engagement. Her commitment to press freedom and ethical journalism sets a powerful tone for the Guild and the industry at large.
