Rural women are the backbone of our communities. This #RuralWomensDay, learn how we're supporting their empowerment through the Global Labor Program – #Inclusive Futures in Kenya inclusivefutures.org/empowering-wom… @Sightsavers @UDPKenya @TechnoServe @USAIDKenya

“Empowering women with disabilities in rural areas is not just about inclusion; it's about creating opportunities for economic independence and food security.” Masline Ngala on the importance of empowering #RuralWomen. Learn more: inclusivefutures.org/empowering-wom… @Sightsavers @UDPKenya

Happy #RuralWomensDay! Thanks to the @USAIDDRG-funded Global Labor Program - #InclusiveFutures in Kenya, there are more women in rural communities farming and earning a living, and more women standing up for their rights. This is what inclusion looks like. youtu.be/Hk9Ce00PROM

The very best we can ever do is to show up.show up for ourselves, show up for other girls and show up for our woman heroes. Unapologetically Feminist @AkiliDada @WVL_Kenya1 @kefeado @Yvai_org @youthhubafrica @Gredaorg

We engaged in a movement building workshop convened by @akilidada and @KEFEADO that brought together women from different organisations to sensitize them on phases of movement, sources of power, movement strategies and actively engage them in leadership and decision making spaces

11/9/2024: TINADA joins Akili Dada and KEFEADO in a capacity-building session to empower young women, girls, and people with disabilities. The focus was on equipping them with skills to actively engage in leadership and decision-making in civil and political spaces.

@IDL_Labs was privileged to join a multisectoral meeting convened by @kefeado in a consortium w/@AkiliDada where we deliberated on issues affecting gender mainstreaming in the county; fast tracking the Kisumu SGBV policy; and instituting M&E for SGBV interventions #DataAdvocacy

A denied conception of the past cripples discernment in the present and of the future. It's been 30years of inviting everyone to think and act differently in the quest for gender equality as a tool for sustainable development. instagram.com/p/C_kuWvhoiZq/…

This has been the driving force behind the gender intergration method KEFEADO uses to reach out to Woman and Man of all cadres in life. We welcome you to celebrate #ThreeDecadesOfChange : Advancing Equality as we #ReflectInThePast during #KEFEADO@30.

In her words, " I saw certain cultural beliefs and practices as blocking this world I dreamt of, at the same time I saw men as crucial partners in addressing these biased socialization processes, and ensuring the attainment of gender equality plus adherence to human rights."

In celebrating collaborations and forging sustained partnerships we draw from an African philosophy of the southern African people "Umuntu Ngumuntu Ngabantu" A person is a person through recognizing other's personhood. #KEFEADOat30 #ThreeDecadesOfChange @AkiliDada @fidakenya

Gender and power norms have shaped the perception and expectation of men and they look down upon women and girls in the community and thus we need to do more community dialogues to influence decision making and behaviour change. @CREAW @UhaiLake @FatumaWambui5 @KEFEADO
