This #Sept28th, we’re trading the Monday blues for a conversation about the politics of our bodies📣

On the International Safe Abortion Day, join us as we connect bodily autonomy, reproductive justice, abortion care, and feminist solidarity. Care without autonomy is not freedom.

On Episode 7 of #SheKnows, Idah brings us a powerful message: "I want every adolescent girl and young woman to know that you know your own reality better than anyone else, and don't let anyone convince you otherwise. You deserve services that are catered for you. You deserve a world that listens to you, and it's okay to take up space and don't be afraid to ask questions. You deserve a world that knows your reality. You deserve a world that listens to you. And you deserve a world that meets you where you are."

Watch the final episode, share the series, and tell us: What is one change you want to see for adolescent girls and young women?

Young women don't need permission to lead, we need the platforms to do it. Grateful to @CMDKenya for creating space to engage on political leadership, campaigning, communication, and what real participation looks like for young women.

[Idah Perez @PerezIdah]

Young women should not be invited into decision making spaces simply to make them look inclusive. Their experiences should shape what gets prioritised, funded and changed.

[Idah Perez @PerezIdah]

Transparency is not a favour. If public money, public policy and public services affect people's lives, people have a right to know what is happening.

[Idah Perez @PerezIdah]

Policy documents measure what governments promise. Lived experience measures what people actually receive. We need to pay attention to the distance between the two.

[Idah Perez @PerezIdah]

Access without autonomy is not freedom. It is not enough for services to exist. People must also have the power to make informed decisions about their bodies, their lives and their futures.

@Zamara_fdn

[Idah Perez @PerezIdah]

Power should not only make promises. It should answer questions. What was funded? What was implemented? What changed? That is what meaningful oversight looks like.

@Zamara_fdn

[Idah Perez @PerezIdah]

A policy can look progressive on paper and remain powerless in someone's life. The distance between a commitment and its impact is where accountability must live.

#FromCommitmentsToAction #ZamaraVoices

[Idah Perez @PerezIdah]

The moment people start believing that poor services are simply “how things are,” accountability has already failed. Communities have the right to question power.

[Idah Perez @PerezIdah]

What good is a complaint mechanism if nothing happens after the complaint?Rights need more than recognition. They need safe pathways to justice, remedy and change.
