Our condolences to all family, friends, colleagues....This is unacceptable and should be punished by law. #16DaysOfActivism @ODPP_KE @NPSOfficial_KE #EndFGM @TonyMwebia @CDomtila @FgmAction @StopFGM #CounteringBacklash14 @UN_Women
This is so so heartbreaking π
"Yesterday I saw news circulating in the social media platforms indicating that an officer had been lynched at Embobut and the body partially torched using a mattress, knowing that you're stationed at Maron, Marakwet East I tried calling your number to confirm who the person was but your phone went unanwered little did I know that infact you were the victim. You died doing your job and your only mistake was to rescue 6 girls who had just undergone the illegal cut(FGM). We were enlisted in the same year to the police and you replaced me at Kocholwo Police Post, Keiyo South when I was moved to Chebororwa, Marakwet West. To the friends and family back in Wundanyi, Taita recieve my hearfelt condolences. Go well Aboo, we'll meet in the beautiful gardens one day. RIP Cpl Lleytton Boma,"

Important Steps to Manage Resistance
1. Do Not Be Surprised
Resistance is to be expected. Prepare for it. Resistance means your work advocating for equality is getting traction. #CounteringBacklash14
Backlash aids in maintaining the current state of affairs by upholding established gender norms and hierarchies.
#CounteringBacklash14
Recognize that gender equality is an ongoing process. Regularly revisit and update the strategy to adapt to changing circumstances and emerging best practices. #CounteringBacklash14
Practicing Self-Care: Addressing entrenched inequality is a prolonged and sometimes challenging endeavor. When faced with formidable resistance, it's acceptable to step back, regroup, and reassess your strategies. #CounteringBacklash14
Create channels for feedback and suggestions from employees. This helps in adjusting the strategy based on evolving needs and challenges.
#CounteringBacklash14
To address fully the consequences of violence and the needs of victims/survivors, it requires a multi-sectorial response with sufficient technical, financial and human resources to match the need;
#CounteringBacklash14
There is need for a coordinated approach and harmonized strategies by the key stakeholders to help actualize the different sectoral responses to meet the various needs of the SGBV survivors.
#CounteringBacklash14
This will help move towards a safe and violence free environment with greater promotion and protection of childrenβs and womenβs human rights through the full implementation of the national child
protection system;
#CounteringBacklash14
against girls and women across the country as well as promote gender equality through greater representation of women in decision-making and governance positions.
#CounteringBacklash14
b). There is a need to enhance support services
for survivors of violence including crisis intervention, information and referral, support groups, free counselling and free access to medical services;
#CounteringBacklash14
Recommendations
a). More investment in research, monitoring
and evaluation of implementation of SGBV
laws and policies is needed by the national
government and international partners;
#CounteringBacklash14
Unequal gendered division of labor coupled with unequal remuneration perpetuates economic disparities. Let's challenge these disparities for fair and just compensation. #CounteringBacklash14
There is no denying that gender equality occupies a prominent place in public discussions and policymaking. While strides are being made in advancing gender equality, the progress is uneven and the constant risk of setbacks remains.
#CounteringBacklash14
As we work towards #CounteringBacklash14 it is imperative that policy makers actively engaged with CSOs to whap discussions around gender inequality
Gender norms upholding men's privilege harm not only women and children but also men themselves. These norms perpetuate harmful behaviour and reinforce unequal power dynamics. #CounteringBacklash14
Communicate the gender equality strategy clearly and consistently throughout the organization. Ensure that employees understand the objectives, benefits, and their roles in achieving gender equality.
#CounteringBacklash14
Establish mechanisms to monitor progress and evaluate the effectiveness of the strategy. Regularly collect and analyze data on key indicators to track changes over time. #CounteringBacklash14
In recent years, Kenya has experienced a noticeable resistance to gender equality, a phenomenon influenced by the patriarchal structure inherent in Kenyan society.
