KISORA is a network of human right grass root lobby groups founded in March 2007 with the main objective of coordinating and undertaking community-led collective human rights’ campaigns. It further aims to enhance the capacity of vulnerable community members (Women, people with disability, those affected and infected by HIV/AIDS, Orphans and Vulnerable children) to effectively and directly advocate for their economic social and cultural rights. It does these “Through mobilizing communities to positively influence policies, laws and practices that deny people their fundamental rights”. So far Networking and collaboration with partners and communities with shared objectives has been the drive for our achievements. We believe in community organizing and putting people first in the discourse of human rights
