Community WorksLasting change requires communities to own their story and lead their future.
Training local advocates and parents to protect children, uphold human rights, and end gender-based violence from within their own communities.
Support Human Rights Advocacy
Your gift strengthens local advocates and protects the rights and dignity of children, women, and families across Kenya.
Human Rights Training
We convene four-day Human Rights Forums across Kenya that bring together community members, local leaders, and youth to learn, reflect, and take action on human rights in their own communities. These immersive trainings build local capacity to prevent violence, challenge harmful norms, and defend the dignity and safety of all people
Alternative Rites of Passage
We partner with communities to support Alternative Rites of Passage that honor culture while protecting girls from harmful practices like FGM-female genital mutilations and early marriage. By replacing cutting with education, mentorship, and public celebration, girls enter adulthood with their rights, health, and future intact.
International and National Human Rights Days
We mobilize communities to mark key human rights observances—such as days focused on women, children, and equality—with marches, forums, school events, and community dialogues. These public celebrations keep rights at the center of community life and inspire more people to stand up for justice
Grassroots Advocacy Networks
We equip local advocates, parents, teachers, and youth leaders with knowledge, tools, and ongoing mentorship so they can respond to rights violations and champion change where they live. These grassroots advocacy networks sustain momentum long after a forum or event ends, turning awareness into everyday action.
I could have let my pain define me. Instead, I chose to use what I learned to protect other women and children. When we stand together, we become unstoppable.
