Gender Programmes Coordinator
My inspiring goal is to see a Safe Space for women and Girls survivors of GBV (and their children) and help them start a new life away from violence, and to reduce FGM cases in Kenya through sensitization, capacity building, entrepreneurship, farming, care and support to orphans and vulnerable children, active community participation and environmental conservation.
We need to strengthen existing capacities of women and youth structures to advocate against human rights violations in their respective communities.
