EACC Scoops Diversity and Inclusivity Award

The Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) has been awarded second runners-up in the category of Constitutional Commissions and Independent Offices on Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging (DEIB) at the recently concluded National Diversity and Inclusion Awards & Recognition (DIAR Awards).

The DIAR Awards gala ceremony, held in March, had EACC compete with other Constitutional Commissions and independent offices to emerge runners-up. The category was won by Commission on Administrative Justice (CAJ).

Since 2018, the National Diversity and Inclusion Awards & Recognition (DIAR Awards), has been a premier platform for recognizing individuals and organizations in Kenya that are promoting diversity and inclusion. The awards broadly seek to provide a platform for sustained conversations and knowledge sharing on best practices on equality, diversity, and inclusion.

EACC Deputy Director in charge of Human Resource Management (HRM) Ellyjoy Bundi said that the Commission strives to always comply with the various constitutional and statutory requirements relating to human resource management. “We are committed to regional and ethnic balancing in our staff recruitment and other human resource practices,” said Ms Bundi.

Notably, EACC was awarded a similar award in the 2022 National Diversity and Inclusion Awards & Recognition (DIAR Awards).
