Despite documented victories by the LGBTI communities across Africa in promoting reforms to repeal restrictions on sexual orientation and gender identity, social inclusion is yet to be fully realized in most countries, Kenya included. Stigma, discrimination and violence still stubbornly persist and the dominant cultural and religious traditions range from indifferent to antagonistic when it comes to rights of LGBTI persons. Norms can support discrimination and use of violence, while norms that support rights can also help protect against the violence and discrimination of LGBTI people. Yet, research on LGBTI persons is limited in Kenya and the majority of research on norms change focuses on health and gender in rural communities.
