Four women killed in Kitui in one month. Four lives stolen. Four families grieving. It is devastating and it must concern all of us.Femicide is a crisis we cannot normalize. Every ignored threat, every act of violence and every silence creates room for the next tragedy

The TFGBV Gap Analysis validation meeting by CRAWN Trust with the support from African Women’s Development Fund, brought together key stakeholders to address the growing threat of Technology Facilitated Gender Based Violence (TFGBV) in Kenya. The presentation highlighted how Kenya’s rapid digital transformation while empowering, has also created new avenues for abuse that disproportionately impact women and girls. Drawing from extensive legal reviews, multi-sector consultations, and powerful survivor testimonies, the analysis exposed critical systemic gaps, including the absence of a clear, gender-responsive legal definition of TFGBV, limited enforcement and digital forensic capacity, fragmented institutional responses, and a lack of survivor-centered remedies such as content takedown mechanisms and compensation frameworks. The findings further revealed how emerging technologies like AI, deepfakes, and online anonymity are accelerating harm while existing laws struggle to keep pace. Survivors’ lived experiences underscored the human cost ranging from reputational damage and economic loss to mental health challenges and forced relocation often compounded by stigma and inadequate support systems. The report calls for urgent, coordinated action, including strengthening and harmonizing legal frameworks, investing in digital investigation capacity, establishing integrated multi-agency response systems, and advancing policies that prioritize survivor dignity, protection, and recovery. Ultimately, the meeting emphasized that addressing TFGBV is a shared responsibility requiring collaboration across government, civil society, and technology actors to build safer, more inclusive digital spaces in Kenya and set a global standard for action. @awdf01 @CREAWKenya @CAID_Kenya @UAFAfrica @CAREinKenya @UraiaTrust @FamilyMediaTV

The closure meeting of the Faith in Action project was a powerful moment to pause, reflect, and appreciate a journey that brought people together around a shared vision of fairness, dignity, and inclusion. Over the past several months, the project created meaningful spaces for faith leaders, community members, and partners to openly engage on sensitive but important issues like gender-based violence, harmful cultural practices, and the need for greater inclusion of women in leadership. Through interfaith dialogues, community forums, and media conversations, voices that were once hesitant grew more confident, and conversations that were once avoided became part of everyday discussions. One of the most impactful aspects of the project was equipping faith leaders with practical tools and knowledge, helping them integrate messages of equality and respect into their teachings and community work. There was also a noticeable shift in mindset, with more leaders stepping forward as advocates for change and encouraging positive roles for men in advancing gender justice. As shared during the meeting, this was not just about activities completed, but about real change in attitudes and perspectives. The closure was not an end, but a reminder of the progress made and a renewed commitment to continue building more inclusive and just communities. @CAID_Kenya @CREAWKenya @FamilyMediaTV

📺 Tune in today from 8:00 pm for a conversation on Women's Leadership in Kenya and how to break the barriers hindering women from leadership. In line with this year's International Women’s Day 2026 theme: . "Rights. Justice. Action. For ALL Women and Girls", the discussion will highlight how women’s leadership is a constitutional right protected under the Constitution of Kenya 2010, yet many women still face barriers such as cultural stereotypes, political violence, online harassment, and limited access to resources. The conversation calls for stronger support from institutions, media, political parties, and communities to create safe and inclusive spaces for women and girls to lead and participate in decision-making.

Every year on International Women’s Day, the world celebrates the achievements of women while renewing the commitment to gender equality. The 2026 theme, “Rights. Justice. Action. For ALL Women and Girls.,” calls for collective action to support women and girls by ensuring equal opportunities, protection, and representation in all spaces. While women continue to play a vital role in leadership, communities, and development, many still face barriers such as discrimination, violence, and limited access to decision-making spaces. This day is therefore both a celebration of progress and a call to action for governments, institutions, and communities to support women’s leadership and advance rights and justice for all women and girls. @KariobangiSJC @WeWorldOnlus @InKitui @CREAWKenya @carecanada @UraiaTrust @CAID_Kenya @UAFAfrica @

International Day of Zero Tolerance for Female Genital Mutilation, observed on 6 February, highlights the urgent need to end FGM and protect the rights and health of girls and women. More than 230 million survivors live today, with 4.5 million girls at risk each year. While progress has been made, it remains fragile due to funding cuts, medicalization and growing resistance. Ending FGM requires sustained, multisectoral action, strong health systems, community engagement and survivor-centred care. With only four years left to meet the 2030 target, renewed commitment and investment are essential to prevent millions more girls from harm. @CAID_Kenya @CARE @UraiaTrust @CREAWKenya @wee_hub @UAFAfrica
