The book examines the role of social media in enhancing public participation in the administration of justice in Kenya. The objective was to examine whether the judiciary can use social media as a communication channel to promote public participation in the administration of justice in Kenya. The study was anchored in two theories relating to mass communication and democratic rights, which justify the assertion that mass media (social media included) can offer a platform to share and receive ideas between different groups. With the findings, the study concluded that since public participation is about receiving and giving information and given that many members of the public especially youths aged 18-35 are users of social media, the judiciary is obligated to consider and adopt social media as a platform for promoting public participation in the administration of justice in Kenya by developing social media policies to guide interaction between judicial staff and members of the public.
