Who takes care of children’s welfare issues when they are committed in institutions? Who protects their dignity? How are they placed into various rehabilitative programmes? What about the officers in these institutions – what are their needs?


On this episode, we speak to Mr. Charles, a Welfare Officer who has worked in rehabilitation institutions in Kenya for over 10 years. He lets us into his day-to-day activities, shares the challenges he and others face, and what motivates him to keep going.


This is one with loads to learn. From reverse mentorship; to some Giriama greetings; to how often your taste palette changes and so much more. 


We laughed a lot on this one too!
