This Easter season, we reflect on transformation—not as a moment, but as a continuous practice. We find that in every piece of work you put in, something is always opening up new possibilities. Happy Easter from all of us at The GoDown!

Sanara (@sanara_ke) Usanii Day at @BarazaLab Industrial Area, #Nairobi.

Baraza Media Lab@BarazaLab

Sanara Usanii Day is here! Today, we gather to reflect, learn, and celebrate the work of Kenya’s creative community through the Sanara Program that’s been building pathways for young people in the creative and cultural fields. Sanara is a collaboration supporting young women and men across Kenya to access practical training and meaningful work in the creative and cultural industries. Baraza Media Lab leads the Skilling for Work arm of Sanara. Through 21 partner hubs, we help creatives gain skills and collaborate in spaces that encourage experimentation and belonging.
