Earlier today, I conducted a grassroots sensitization meeting with women in Garissa, focusing on cultural preservation and the significance of ushanga, Accompanied by the Area Mp @DekowMajor .
This initiative aligns with @UshangaKE core mandate of Cultural Preservation and Protection for Socio-Economic Empowerment, particularly targeting women, especially those from pastoralist communities. The aim is to foster a deep understanding of cultural heritage, ensuring its preservation as a means to empower women socio-economically. This endeavor underscores my commitment to uplifting women and promoting cultural sustainability.
Happy International Women's Day!
Theme: Invest in Women. Accelerate Progress.
