@okindoAugustine @RHARK7 Women's health issues are often treated as secondary concerns until a crisis occurs. Campaigns like this remind us that equitable healthcare is not a privilege—it's a necessity.

Today we attended the BIA Annual National Gender Technical Working Group meeting at a critical time as femicide cases continue to rise.
Speakers emphasized one message: the time for action is now. Policies must move beyond paper to implementation, accountability, and protection .

[FEMNET @FemnetProg]

Strong regional frameworks on GBV already exist across Africa, but implementation, accountability, and coordination remain some of the biggest gaps.
🗣️How do regional bodies move beyond policy commitments into action that is actually felt by women and girls especially those facing conflict-related violence, cross-border exploitation, and systemic barriers to justice and protection?

A 4.8 Trillion Budget: How will it Impact the People?

Yesterday, TI-Kenya, together with members of the Okoa Uchumi Coalition, released a statement raising serious concerns over the proposed FY 2026/27 budget and the Draft Finance Bill 2026

We are witnessing a terrifying contradiction: a government exceeding its own budget even as basic services rapidly decline.

Today, COVAW joined the Nairobi City County Government, Wow Mom Kenya, and Youth Alive! Kenya, Oxfam, WECare, and other partners for the launch of the Nairobi State of Care Report 2026 and the Toolkit for Care Mainstreaming in Planning and Budgeting.

The report provides important evidence based on the state of care in Nairobi and highlights the urgent need for stronger investment, coordination, and policy implementation across the care sector.

The launch also brought together stakeholders working across childcare, disability inclusion, domestic work, palliative care, migrant and refugee support, and care for older persons to strengthen collaboration toward a more inclusive and responsive care system for Nairobi.

[FEMNET @FemnetProg]

You cannot build a transformative women’s leadership movement without centering survivors.
True feminist leadership means auditing our language, advocacy, and organizing to ensure they are trauma-informed, healing-forward, and survivor-centered not just in reports, but in practice.

“Survivors are not statistics. They are architects of the future we are building”.

Kenya has identified strengthening health workforce capacity, expanding digital interoperability, improving disease surveillance, advancing climate-resilient health systems, and promoting local manufacturing as key priority areas requiring demand-driven innovation partnerships to accelerate Universal Health Coverage.

At the “Reverse Pitch” session on the margins of the World Health Assembly in Geneva , we emphasized the need for innovations that are affordable, scalable, interoperable, and responsive to frontline healthcare realities.

The Ministry of Health Kenya called for stronger collaboration between governments, innovators, investors, academic institutions, and development partners to support sustainable health innovations and move countries from fragmented pilot projects to long-term health systems transformation.

[Coalition on Violence Against Women (COVAW) @covaw]

The future of technology in Africa cannot be discussed without talking about safety, inclusion, and human rights.
We are proud to have our Executive Director, @fridahannet, join the Africa Tech Policy Summit 2026 and KeIGF26, where she will contribute to conversations on digital policy and the realities women and girls continue to face online.

From online harassment to technology-facilitated gender-based violence, digital spaces are increasingly becoming extensions of the inequalities many women already navigate offline. This is why gender justice must be central to tech and policy conversations.

At COVAW, we advocate for digital ecosystems that are safe, inclusive, and grounded in the lived realities of women and marginalized communities. We continue to push for systems that do not reproduce harm, but instead enable dignity, access, and accountability online.

We look forward to contributing to these important conversations at #AfTPS2026 and #KeIGF26.

In western Kenya, safe drinking water in schools and health facilities was never guaranteed; until now.

Through @CAREKenya's Children's Safe Drinking Water Project, supported by @ProcterGamble, rainwater harvesting systems are transforming communities.

Over 16,600 people now have reliable water access across 43 schools, 25,095 learners, and 20 health facilities because institutions are co-investing and taking ownership of lasting solutions.

🌱 TREES. KNOWLEDGE. A DRUG-FREE GENERATION. WE DELIVERED ALL THREE.

We partnered with Kenya Forestry Services for a tree planting exercise in Nyamira South at Reng'enyo Primary School.

We planted trees. Then we planted something even more important, Alcohol and Drug Abuse (ADA) prevention knowledge in young minds.

We grow futures. Not addiction. 🌳🚫🍾
