The brutal face of economic violence in Kenya's conservancies nation.africa/kenya/news/gen… @NationAfrica










Joyce Peshu of @KWCAKenya shares that addressing #genderbasedviolence as a barrier to women's conservation leadership has led to change. A conservancy board had no women leaders and has now reached parity. Men have become champions -- recruiting women in ranger workforces.

👉 Can we tell you a story?⚡ ... of how #landrights and #genderjustice go 🤝 ? ❤️ This is how ILC Member, @KWCAKenya (our Africa Gender Justice Award champion!) fought for women's #landrights and created a more gender-just community in #Kasigua, Kenya. #united4landrights

Gathering for peace! 350 women from the Isiolo and Samburu communities came together for the Annual Inter-conservancy Women for #Peace meeting. These women are essential in promoting peaceful coexistence within their communities. #coexist @AICS_Nairobi @aics_it
