While highlighting the facilitative role of KFCB in spurring the sector growth, Ms. Mwanza indicated that Board is implementing targeted interventions and initiatives aimed at strengthening regulatory compliance, enhancing industry awareness, safeguarding consumers, and supporting the growth and sustainability of the sector. KFCB is a State agency under the State Department for Youth Affairs and Creative Economy , mandated by the Films and Stage Plays Act, Cap. 222, to regulate audiovisual content to ensure it aligns with Kenyaโ€™s culture, moral values, and national aspirations, and to protect children and vulnerable audiences from inappropriate content. @Waziri_Mvurya @NellyMuluka @fikirini_jacobs @moyasa_ke @SDY_Ke @SpokespersonGoK @koske_felix
