Kenya‘s Plans for the NADPA Conference

The event will feature panel discussions, workshops, and keynote presentations covering various topics, including regulatory frameworks, enforcement mechanisms, emerging technologies, and cross-border data transfers. Participants can share insights, best practices, and lessons learned from their respective jurisdictions, contributing to developing comprehensive and effective data protection policies.

The significance of hosting the conference in Nairobi, Kenya’s vibrant capital city, cannot be overstated. Nairobi has emerged as a leading hub for technology and innovation in Africa, attracting startups, multinational corporations, and tech sector investments. By hosting the NADPA conference, Kenya reaffirms its commitment to promoting data protection and privacy rights while showcasing its position as a leader in the digital economy.

Role of Media and Data Commissioner

Principal Secretary at the State Department for Information and Communications Technology (ICT), John Tanui, emphasised Kenya’s readiness to host the conference and its dedication to advancing data protection initiatives on the continent. He highlighted the importance of collaboration among data protection authorities in addressing shared challenges and ensuring the responsible use of data across borders.

Tanui said, “Participants can look forward to delving into the nuances of data protection trends across various African countries, gaining insights into best practices, and fostering partnerships to advance data protection initiatives on the continent,” Tanui added.

Overall, the NADPA conference presents a unique opportunity for African data protection authorities to collaborate, innovate, and strengthen their efforts to safeguard data privacy rights in an increasingly digital world. As Kenya prepares to host this landmark event, all eyes are on Nairobi as it takes centre stage in shaping the future of data protection in Africa.
