Wahu Wangari is an Associate at Odhiambo & Odhiambo Advocates, a Researcher and Consultant at the firm’s policy, research, consulting and academic wing, Prof. Ruth Aura Consultancy. She holds a Bachelor of Laws (LL.B.) degree from Egerton University (Kenya) and a Postgraduate Diploma in Law from the Kenya School of Law (Kenya).

Her professional interests lie at the intersection of gender justice, environmental governance, human rights, and public policy, with a strong foundation in constitutional interpretation and research-based advocacy. She has advised local and international clients on immigration and nationality matters, family and succession law, and civil and commercial litigation, while also contributing to policy and legislative research in climate systems and social inclusion.

Wahu brings to her practice a unique interdisciplinary lens that blends law, research, and social inquiry. She has participated in consultancies and academic research projects focusing on gender equality, women ‘s political participation, climate justice, environmental law, micro-financing, and small business enterprises, including national and comparative studies examining how legal frameworks can promote equity and sustainability. Her background includes working on projects addressing femicide policy reform, gender-responsive climate action, and access to justice for marginalized communities.

Wahu is an eloquent speaker. She fiercely represents her clients in court and equally presents at high profile conferences on gender, climate change and decolonial issues.

Her approach is grounded in meticulous legal research, empathetic engagement, and strategic problem-solving. Wahu is particularly committed to amplifying women’s rights and advancing equality through law, policy innovation, and institutional accountability; ensuring that every case, client, and cause she serves contributes to a more just and inclusive society.
