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.

FGM survivors have lived experiences of how this practice has affected them. However, entrenched social norms has made progress slow.
Survivors are key in accelerating abandonment of the practice. We are sustaining conversations with survivors to #endFGM in Tharaka Nithi County
Black American Carver, over 100 years ago, urged farmers to practice crop rotation. He knew that cotton farming leached soil of nutrients, leading to poor yields. By rotating with nitrogen-fixing species like peanuts, and sweet potatoes, the soil could be restored. @zerothworld

Sometimes, when faced with societal pressure, we rush to legislate!, unfortunately, laws alone have never solved a societal dysfunction. The pressure is for @WilliamsRuto and @gender_ke to declare Femicide a National disaster, then what?
@hannawcheptumo What next after we declare? #EndFemicideKe
It is now 2 days after #EndFemicideKe demos.. who is following up to address the root causes? Who is willing to invest resources in addressing frangile and negative masculinities in our men and boys! Who is thinking of creating a safe space for men? π€.
What are the social, economic, and other societal pressures that our young men are going through? What is their status of mental health? π€ . Are we ready to create some safe spaces for men to get help or vent? This is not rocket science, as 100% of Femicide cases are perpetrated by men! #EndFemicideKe
Hard truth! By the time we go to the road for #EndFemicideKe demos, someone has lost their lives & we can't bring them back. So the question begs, what are we doing to deal with "potential future femicide perpetrators" - that is my fellow men and boys. Is someone ready to address the root causes of femicide?
