WE ARE HIRING A LEGAL COUNSEL. LINK: tinyurl.com/legalcounselmbs

We are stepping into this year grounded in purpose, carrying the weight of what we have witnessed and clear about the responsibility that lies ahead of us. To set the tone, we came together as a team to reflect deeply on the year that has passed and to plan deliberately for the work before us. It was a space to assess our impact, confront the gaps that remain and make honest decisions about how we strengthen our response to sexual violence and support for survivors. The work continues and we are entering this year prepared, focused and ready to do what must be done. #RestoringDignity

Across Kenya, countless women face neglect, humiliation & abuse in health facilities — violations that strip away dignity & endanger lives. Our film “The Silent Labor Pains” premiered at #ACHPR85, where Team @KELINKenya joined a panel on strengthening litigation & implementation to advance gender justice, procedural accountability & end obstetric violence. @KELINKenya continues to champion accountability, respectful maternity care & stronger emergency systems that uphold women’s rights & dignity — using instruments like the @achpr_cadhp to advance obstetric rights. 🎥 Watch here 👉 youtube.com/watch?v=s6gfdJ… #EndObstetricViolenceKE @achpr_cadhp @EACHRights @HERAF_Kenya @pemakenya @HennetKenya @Jinsiangu @CSA_Kenya @TheCRADLEKENYA @GIESCR @AfyAfrika @WanguKanjaF @ReproRights @FPRJC_Ke @Umande_Trust @PHMKenya @esrc_hakijamii @hoymask @LVCTKe @VSOKenya @MalecheAllan @hminishi254

What you see is the dreamy side. The moments of joy, process or wins. Then there is this. Brokenness, fatigue, doubt, failure behind the scenes. If I ever make it look easy or straightforward, I promise there are many of these moments that remain undocumented.

I'm not engaging with a rape apologist. Especially one masquerading as a nurse and a mental health advocate!
