Before working as a coordinator for HiiL’s Justice Accelerator Hub in East Africa, Morgan Gikonyo founded both Wakili Mkononi and Ask Wakili.

The kind of justice that people around the world need most relates to their employment, family, neighbours, land and crime. Let us take a look at what people experience in each of these areas.
I have not been happy at work for a long time. My employer has refused to grant multiple holiday requests. I am not told why these are denied. I want time to go see my family. I am severely stressed and as a result have rising physical complaints.
I have an employment dispute
Many suffer in silence against injustices. Fatimah is well within her rights to find a solution for the dispute at work. I would like to know how I can better help – before the plight escalates further.
I help people like Fatimah
As a loving parent who is currently dealing with separation, my life is chaotic. All of a sudden many agreements need to be made. How can we continue to be good parents to our children? Which housing arrangements could work?
Facing a family issue
When Kato is not able to find a solution, I will have to make the best possible decision in order for them to move on with their lives. I need to know where they go for help, what outcomes they are looking for and what is needed to get to those outcomes. Only then I can contribute to a better treatment.
Judge working on Kato’s case
My life has been disrupted severely. The upstairs neighbours are noisy, even at night. I am unable to get much sleep, which affects my mood and performance at work. How can I and the upstairs neighbours work on a solution?
Living with a neighbour conflict
I am sure there others like Sergio who face the same issue of noisy neighbours. What platforms do they currently have to help? Maybe I can build something that works for people like Sergio that ultimately delivers a solution…

They took my land from me. Now my income, home and well-being is insecure. My whole family is suffering. Is there any legal tool that can help us?
Confronting a land dispute
Land grabbing and disputes over inheritance are examples of land issues that occur in my court. In order to improve our services I am seeking knowledge about what kind of solutions and services work.
Court leader
After being mugged, my life is not the same. My laptop, phone and wallet were stolen. Plus, I feel anxious and stressed while going around in the city. I want things to get better. What should I do?
Coping with crime
Continuous improvements to the way justice systems address people’s problems, is something I take seriously. For this, we need to pay close attention to what people like Nikita go through and how the system delivers justice that she and others are satisfied with.
