    OPERATING DIGITAL GIG PLATFORMS IN DIFFERENT REGULATORY ENVIRONMENTS OPERATING DIGITAL GIG PLATFORMS IN DIFFERENT REGULATORY ENVIRONMENTS A comparative assessment of Kenya, Tanzania, and Ethiopia FINAL REPORT : JUNE 2020 1 OPERATING DIGITAL GIG PLATFORMS IN DIFFERENT REGULATORY ENVIRONMENTS Acknowledgements Mercy Corps’ Youth Impact Labs (YIL) commissioned Open Capital to conduct this comparative assessment of the digital gig economies in Kenya, Tanzania, and Ethiopia, with a focus on the regulatory environments in those three markets. The findings in this report were developed through consultations with key stakeholders in the digital gig economy eco-system including digital gig platform operators, research bodies, legal experts, and tax experts. We would like to thank the Open Capital research team for interviewing the different stake- holders and preparing this report. We would especially like to thank our interview participants for sharing their views on the digital gig economy – without their insights this study would not have been possible. Youth Impact Labs Catalyzed by funding from Google.org, Mercy Corps’ YIL identifies and tests creative, technology-enabled solutions to tackle global youth unemployment, accelerating job creation to enable every young person to access opportunities for dignified, purposeful work. Focusing on vulnerable youth aged 15 – 35, YIL operates in two strategic regional hubs, serving the Middle East and East Africa. In Kenya, YIL focuses on digital marketplaces and platforms that offer services to micro and small enterprises; agricultural supply chain management; and digital work. The program supports these enterprises through fi- nancial and technical support; issued in the form of milestone-based grants. 2 OPERATING DIGITAL GIG PLATFORMS IN DIFFERENT REGULATORY ENVIRONMENTS Contents 5 Executive Summary 10 1.

  • COVID-19 and Vulnerable, Hardworking Kenyans: Why It's Time
    Covid-19 and vulnerable, hardworking Kenyans Why it’s time for a strong social protection plan OXFAM BRIEFING PAPER – NOVEMBER 2020 Seven NGOs, the Kenyan government, the European Union and the Danish and German governments are working together to implement a ’Safety Nets’ programme targeting Kenya’s millions of informal workers. With rising food insecurity and sexual and gender-based-violence, mounting job losses, poor access to water and sanitation, and a lack of formal safety nets, the Kenyan informal sector has suffered the brunt of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Safety Nets programme has revealed that cash transfers which support the most vulnerable people, and are implemented safely, transparently and accountably, have the potential to help vulnerable households stave off starvation, infection and eviction. They can also help reduce the vulnerability of survivors and those at risk of sexual and gender-based violence. The results of this programme demonstrate that nascent Kenyan ‘social protection’ programmes should be 1) immediately extended and expanded to the many vulnerable Kenyans currently not enrolled in any social protection programme; and 2) strengthened long-term to make them more effective, sustainable and accountable. © Oxfam International November 2020 This paper was written by Levi Gikandi. Oxfam acknowledges the assistance of The Kenya Red Cross Society, Concern Worldwide, ACTED, IMPACT Initiatives, The Centre for Rights, Education and Awareness (CREAW) and the Wangu Kanja Foundation in its production and launch.

    Country Policy and Information Note Kenya: Internal relocation Version 1.0 May 2020 Preface Purpose This note provides country of origin information (COI) and analysis of COI for use by Home Office decision makers handling particular types of protection and human rights claims (as set out in the Introduction section). It is not intended to be an exhaustive survey of a particular subject or theme. It is split into two main sections: (1) analysis and assessment of COI and other evidence; and (2) COI. These are explained in more detail below. Assessment This section analyses the evidence relevant to this note – i.e. the COI section; refugee/human rights laws and policies; and applicable caselaw – by describing this and its inter-relationships, and provides an assessment of, in general, whether one or more of the following applies: • A person is reasonably likely to face a real risk of persecution or serious harm • The general humanitarian situation is so severe as to breach Article 15(b) of European Council Directive 2004/83/EC (the Qualification Directive) / Article 3 of the European Convention on Human Rights as transposed in paragraph 339C and 339CA(iii) of the Immigration Rules • The security situation presents a real risk to a civilian’s life or person such that it would breach Article 15(c) of the Qualification Directive as transposed in paragraph 339C and 339CA(iv) of the Immigration Rules • A person is able to obtain protection from the state (or quasi state bodies) • A person is reasonably able to relocate within a country or territory • A claim is likely to justify granting asylum, humanitarian protection or other form of leave, and • If a claim is refused, it is likely or unlikely to be certifiable as ‘clearly unfounded’ under section 94 of the Nationality, Immigration and Asylum Act 2002.

Fearful of election-related unrest, the government blocked thousands of allegedly inflammatory text messages, mandated bulk texts be pre-screened, and hired a team to proactively monitor social media for inciting language (see LIMITS ON CONTENT). Service providers were required to install internet traffic monitoring equipment known as the Network Early Warning System (NEWS) by December 2012 to detect cyber threats, such as online hate speech (see VIOLATIONS OF USER RIGHTS). KENYA FREEDOM ON THE NET 2013 2 INTRODUCTION Over the past decade, Kenya has made notable strides in the field of information and communication technologies (ICTs), spurred by the government’s commitment to economic development and an engaged civil society. Among several success stories are the start of construction for the Konza Techno City, dubbed “Africa’s Silicon Savannah,” in January 2013,1 the launch of the National ICT Master Plan 2017,2 and an impressive rise in both internet and mobile usage.
