🌅 As #FeministCOP 2025 comes to a close, one thing is clear — the movement is unstoppable! 💜🔥

We’ve built feminist power, sharpened advocacy, and reimagined a just transition rooted in equality and care.

From Maputo to Belém — we carry this momentum forward to #COP30 with renewed vigour, courage, and solidarity. 🌍✊🏾

In the care conversation, employers of domestic workers are key stakeholders. Through the Employers’ Community of Practice (CoP), the Time To Care Project engages employers to champion the rights and needs of domestic workers, with a strong focus on addressing gender-based violence (GBV).
Last week, we held our Employers’ CoP convening in Nakuru. These convenings are participant-led, meaning the employers themselves take charge of the discussions, shaping solutions that work for them and the workers they employ.
The Nakuru CoP has been particularly active, creating meaningful links with the local administration and the Nakuru County Government. Over the past quarter, they have even met with members of the County Assembly to push for stronger support for domestic workers.
Partnering with local administration and government is essential in the care conversation, it paves the way for investment in care infrastructure and ensures domestic workers’ rights remain a policy priority. We are excited by the steps made by the Nakuru CoP and remain curious to see what their unity can achieve.@OxfamKE @OxfamCanada @GAC_Corporate @CDTD_

This #WorldEnvironmentDay, we uplift the voices of Indigenous #women & girls.

Plastic pollution chokes rivers, kills livestock, and erodes heritage. It's not just an environmental issue, it’s a gendered injustice. Together, we must #BeatPlasticPollution.

Did you know?

The IGAD region is home to over 300 million people and an incredible 70% of them are under the age of 30! This not just a number — it’s a powerful force for change, innovation, and growth. When youth are empowered, the region thrives!

We’re excited to join the 3-day COMESA training on Mediation over Natural Resource-Based Conflicts from April 23–25 in Baringo County!

Key themes: conflict analysis, mediation processes & challenges. #BIPO #Peacebuilding #NaturalResources #Mediation #COMESA

[COMESA Governance, Peace and Security @COMESA_GPS]

The discussions provided an introduction to the COMESA Handbook for Mediation on Natural Resource Conflicts. Participants explored mediation frameworks and tools designed to help resolve disputes over land, water, and other vital resources. These tools are essential for fostering dialogue, building consensus, and creating lasting solutions that benefit communities and ensure sustainable resource management.

Our ED represented BIPO at the African Regional Workshop on #PositiveMasculinity by @UNWomenKenya & partners. As an Endorois young woman, she uplifted Indigenous voices, championed gender justice & called for inclusive,leadership. #EndGBV #SheLeads

[UN Women Kenya @unwomenkenya]

Day 1 of the #PositiveMasculinity Regional Workshop has come to an end. Girls, young women & gender champions have unpacked toxic masculinity & how to shape strategies to challenge @GBV across #Africa.

Empowerment, digital safety & advocacy are at the heart of the conversation.
