Teen pregnancy is one of the primary barriers to girls’ education. In many places, girls are forced to leave school when they become pregnant, with laws and social stigma preventing them from ever returning. We'd an open talk with adults and school girls on the reentry policy

[Straight Talk Kenya @StraightTalkKe]

From the straight talk Family, we say thank you to the partners @DSWKenya @Af_Rika @elfafrica1 @YoungnFreeKE @YouthActKE for taking out time in understanding the overall purpose and aim of marking this day, we indeed appreciate every ounce of energy offered today #DadaFest2021

"It is useful to examine leadership during childhood and adolescence as what occurs during the developmental years can have an impact on the leadership behaviors exhibited later in the workplace as an adult"
#DadaFest2021

[Straight Talk Kenya @StraightTalkKe]

Adolescence can reinforce self-esteem and be a catalyst for flourishing adulthood. Yet many adolescents are never offered the chance to act as leaders, and adult leadership models are often inappropriate for teens that have unique developmental needs
#DadaFest2021

[Straight Talk Kenya @StraightTalkKe]

There is a need to look closely into specific policies that are for adolescents and the contribution of schools in the development of leadership skills among students.
#DadaFest2021

[Straight Talk Kenya @StraightTalkKe]

There is a need to empower Adolescents with information on some of the health risks and solutions, demystifying the myths and misconceptions they have around the mentioned issues.

Advice from our big sister DJ Wiwa, "The more you empower others, the more they will grow and thrive, thriving takes a lot more than just putting your mind to it, you need to learn to walk with people. As you are shown the way, remember to trickle down the knowledge to others"

KARIBUNI SANA to this overdue conversation! 🚺🚺🚺

Many of us were raised in societies where it was normal for women to remain silent where men are speaking.

SWALI: In what WAYS and PLACES are women still being silenced in Kenya today?
