On January 28, 2026, the city of Mombasa hosted a pivotal moment for digital rights in Africa. Commemorating International Data Privacy Day, the Lawyers Hub was proud to participate in the Data Privacy Conference 2026, an event that underscored the critical role of data protection in our rapidly evolving digital economy.
The highlight of our participation was an insightful panel discussion featuring Linda Bonyo, Founder & CEO of Lawyers Hub, titled:
“Lawful Bases for Processing Personal Data for AI: Data Governance in the AI Era”
Accountability in the Age of AI
As AI systems increasingly shape decision-making across finance, healthcare, and governance, the legal frameworks governing them must be robust. The session unpacked how organizations can responsibly process personal data in AI systems while ensuring the non-negotiable pillars of accountability, transparency, and trust.
The conference served as a global reminder that in this digital age, data is the most valuable asset, and its protection is the most critical duty for any forward-thinking institution.
Training the Experts of Tomorrow
For the modern lawyer and tech professional, understanding privacy law is no longer just an "added bonus"—it is a core requirement. From the ODPC’s latest directives in Kenya to global GDPR standards, the landscape is shifting under our feet.
At Lawyers Hub, we aren’t just talking about privacy; we are training the leaders who defend it.
