Breaking cycles of silence through dialogue, literacy, and generational healing in Kajiado County.
In Kajiado County, systemic silence surrounds Gender-Based Violence (GBV) and Violence Against Women and Girls (VAWG). Deep-seated cultural barriers often prioritize traditional norms over safety, leaving survivors isolated.
There is a critical gap in legal literacy; many are unaware of their rights under the Constitution 2010 and the PADV Act 2015. We work to dismantle these barriers, replacing fear with informed advocacy.
Bridging the gap between law and village reality.
