Kenya-Finland Bilateral Programme is supporting visits to every school in #samburu to ensure that students know the law, their rights & safe rites of passage for girls. Elders/Cultural Leaders are leading the way by sharing the Kisima Declaration to #endfgm & #childmarriage.

Happy to share some exciting news from Samburu on the Kenya-Finland bilateral #GBV programme between @FinnishEmbNBO and @gender_ke guided by @idevpractice, which I now support in my role at @NIRAS_LTS Finland.
Just over a year ago, elders in Samburu vowed to end FGM, (reuters.com/article/kenya-wo…). Tomorrow, the Kenya-Finland Bilateral GBV Programme and @AFGMBoard will support a meeting to reflect on the Post-Kisima Roadmap 🇰🇪🇫🇮 #endGBV @FinnishEmbNBO

Könsstympning är en grav form av könsrelaterat våld. Vill du veta mer om situationen i Kenya och hur vi arbetar för att förbättra den? Lyssna till #SlagetEfterTolv imorgon onsdag med @lliselott

Important to tell these cruel stories, media also needs to play its role in ending #SGBV. Finland @FinnishEmbNBO works with @gender_ke @unwomenkenya to improve prevention and response to GBV in 🇰🇪. #EndSGBV #GenerationEquality
🇰🇪 When the pandemic hit #Kenya, cases of gender-based violence exploded.
Fear, stigma and mistrust of the police mean the majority of cases remain unreported.
#BBCAfricaEye investigates the roots of the violence and the trauma behind the statistics.
Can survivors get justice?
Våld mot kvinnor - vi måste prata om det, ärligt och öppet, utan skam och ursäkter, analysera statistiken och trenderna och vara lyhörda för behoven i samhället. #Orangeday #OrangeTheWorld #stopviolenceagainstwomen kvinnoforbundet.fi/sv/starts…
