RARE - Programme

Yesterday at #NDCYouthKE, we unveiled our Participatory EWS to revolutionize climate resilience in Merti! Big thanks to the @Environment_Ke, @UNDPKenya, @UNICEFKenya, and all the fantastic attendees and conveners who made the workshop a success. Let’s keep the momentum going!

The Isiolo #ICPDYouthDialogueKE chapter is here! Youth-led organizations are coming together to share ideas, inspire change, and shape the future as we mark 30 years of ICPD progress. Let’s amplify youth voices for a better tomorrow. #ICPD30 #Isiolo

Youth in Isiolo are engaging with the 17 ICPD25 Commitments, strengthening their understanding of national priorities. Through dialogue and collaboration, they’re positioning themselves as key partners in advancing the #ICPD25 promise and the 2030 Agenda. #ICPDYouthDialogueKE

Through the #ICPDYouthDialogueKE, Isiolo youth are deepening their understanding of national priorities and aligning their actions with the #ICPD25 promise and the 2030 Agenda, ensuring no young person is left behind.

Through open conversations and shared experiences, Isiolo youth are more inspired to champion change, drive accountability, and push forward the ICPD25 vision for a better future. #ICPDYouthDialogueKE

On Day 3 of the #ResilientFutures training, participants enhanced their facilitation skills and deepened their understanding of climate change and #SRHR. The training is meant to equip young leaders to cascade this knowledge, strengthening community resilience. #ClimateAction

Climate change and SRHR are interconnected challenges. Through #ResilientFutures, young people across Kenya are exploring these links and preparing to respond with solutions that strengthen community resilience. #ClimateAction #YouthLeadership #SRHR

The #ResilientFutures Training of ToTs began yesterday, bringing together young people from across Kenya. Day 1 introduced the training objectives, strengthened facilitation skills, and provided a foundation in #CSE while linking it to #Climatechange.

Ongoing at #ResilientFutures, young leaders are combining knowledge and practice to understand how climate change shapes their communities and what this means for gender and SRHR. #ResilientFutures #ClimateAction #SRHR

The #BongaBox Initiative is more than a reporting tool, it’s a movement to end FGM. It breaks the silence, gives girls a safe space to speak, and empowers communities to abandon harmful traditions.’ ~ Diramu Haji #RHNKConference2025 #EndingFGMC #Isiolo

Diramu Haji is presenting the #BongaBox at #RHNKConference2025 and joining the conversation on enhancing #SRHR and ending #FGM through youth-led digital tools. We are proud to spotlight innovation from Isiolo that puts girls' voices first. #EndFGM

Proud to share the #BongaBox innovation at #RHNKConference2025, a youth-led, tech-powered solution giving girls a safe space to report FGM & access support. We are grateful for the platform to connect, learn and amplify survivor-centered approaches. #EndFGM

Climate change is driving #FGM in Kajiado as drought and poverty push families into harmful survival tactics. Adolescent girls lose access to #SRHR, education, and protection. Climate action must prioritize their rights. #RHNKConference2025

"A woman claimed it was her constitutional right to undergo FGM. But the court ruled there is no constitutional right to self-harm. She had no legal right to cut herself or others. Harmful practices, even if voluntary, aren’t protected." ~ Njoki Ndung’u (L.J) #RHNKConference2025

@RARE_Programme @TheGirlGen @rhnkorg @Amref_Kenya Keep going guys. Proud of you Team

At #RHNKConference2025, we’re proud to spotlight our bold youth-led efforts under the TGG-ALM program. Through innovations like the #BongaBox, survivor support, and community-driven advocacy, we’re proving that ending FGM is possible, when youth lead, systems shift. #EndFGM

Language shapes how we fight harmful practices. It can centre survivors or erase their truths. It can honour culture or be used to harm. It can promote healing or deepen wounds. Let’s choose words that reflect care, clarity, and justice.
