Tolerating hurtful treatment from a partner weakens self-esteem + confidence, makes one hostage to their control, and exacerbates emotional abuse. #spotitstopit #GBV @GBVnet @EmthonjeniWomen @ConcernsWomen @totocentre @coact1325 @ComfortStream @advc_zim

@UN_Women @KombeMartha @melindagates @gatesfoundation Women are world's power house 💪 Workers in healthcare professions at the forefront of the
COVID-19 response, 70 per cent of whom are women, and face multiple risks to their health, wellbeing, and safety.

[HealthRight Kenya @HealthRight_KE]

It is important to hold discussions with stakeholders like HCWs, religious leaders and youth champions during implementation of activities. They are the custodians of knowledge in the community #communityhealth #covid19

[Safe Speak @SafeSpeak]

In supporting survivors of GBV our response should always be informed by their experience. If not our intervention is compromised + more dangerous. #GBV #DV #SGBV @ConcernsWomen @GBVnet @usikimye @RiseAgainstGBV @AbuseFathers @GBVMustFall @totocentre @esther_aoko @eacsof_kenya
