Women Empowerment, Gender & Inclusion

Women and adolescent girls in Northern Kenya and the Mandera Triangle face systemic barriers that limit their opportunities and well-being. Deep-rooted cultural norms, early and forced marriages, gender-based violence, and lack of access to education and reproductive health services perpetuate cycles of disadvantage. To address these issues, we implement targeted interventions that combine mentorship, education, health, and economic empowerment to create sustainable change. Through safe spaces, advocacy, and skill-building programs, we work to ensure that adolescent girls and young women (AGYW) have the resources and support they need to thrive.
