Now And Beyond

Building an equitable world where communities and the planet thrive together. Focusing on women, youth, and vulnerable groups through localized Climate Action.

[Now And Beyond @BeyondNow254]

Yesterday, we held our first official meeting in our new office.

We took our volunteers through key topics, from our code of conduct to the projects our organisation will be implementing in 2026.

For many, it was a dream come true.

West Pokot ranks 2nd nationally in teenage pregnancies, alongside high rates of GBV and harmful practices. Through the #AccelerateProgram, supported by @PSKenya_, our organisation is changing this narrative by strengthening #SRHR at the community level.

Coming from the North Rift, I know firsthand how droughts spark conflict over pasture and water. Early Warning Systems are a game-changer for stopping these crises before they escalate.

A huge thank you to @CIVICUSalliance and @CemirideKenya! 👇🧵

[Population Services (PS) Kenya @PSKenya_]

Day one of the #RHNKConference2026 reinforced a powerful message: Africa's future will be shaped by how intentionally we invest in its young people today.

As conversations unfolded around accountability, evidence, #youthagency, and meaningful engagement, one theme remained clear: young people must not only be included in decisions that affect their lives, but empowered to shape them.

For PS Kenya, this resonates deeply with the work we are advancing through #Accelerate, #A360, #DISC, and #TIKO, where communities, health systems, and young people are working together to improve access to sexual and reproductive health services and create opportunities for adolescents and youth to thrive.

As the conference continues, we look forward to sharing lessons, amplifying community voices, and contributing to conversations that are shaping more responsive and youth-centered systems across Africa.
