Conducted in line with the Board’s Consumer Advisory function under the Parental Digital Literacy (PaDiL) Programme, the session provided caregivers with practical skills to enforce parental controls, manage screen time, and apply safeguards to protect children from exposure to harmful audiovisual content and other media-related risks.

At the forum held on Friday, 2nd October 2026, the KFCB team emphasised the collective responsibility of protecting children from age-inappropriate content and promoting online safety. Caregivers were encouraged to monitor and guide children’s content consumption across mainstream media and digital platforms.

The team also held an interactive session with the children on safe media viewing and responsible use of digital platforms, complemented by fun activities. Further, KFCB donated essential supplies and personal care items to SOS Children’s Villages as part of its Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR).

KFCB, a Government agency mandated to regulate the audiovisual sector, implements the PaDiL Programme in collaboration with other Government agencies and partners to equip parents, guardians, and caregivers with the skills and tools needed to help children navigate the digital landscape safely and responsibly.

Are you a filmmaker, film agent, distributor, exhibitor, or other stakeholder in Kenya’s film industry?

To help filmmakers and other industry practitioners better understand and navigate the regulatory environment they operate in while enhancing compliance, the Kenya Film Classification Board (KFCB), a State regulatory agency, in collaboration with other Government regulatory agencies whose mandates impact the film industry, developed the Regulators’ Handbook for Film Practitioners in Kenya.

The handbook consolidates information on film regulation, tax obligations and incentives, filming guidelines in national parks, the use of drones in film production, copyright and intellectual property protection, data protection requirements, and other industry regulations.

The Regulators’ Handbook for Film Practitioners in Kenya can be accessed via: https://kfcb.go.ke/sites/default/files/2026-01/KFCB%20Regulators%27%20Handbook.pdf.

KFCB remains committed to working with industry stakeholders to promote a facilitative regulatory environment that supports talent monetisation, job opportunities, and wealth creation, in line with the Bottom-Up Economic Transformation Agenda (BETA) and other Government development priorities.
