As Kenya works toward the promise of gender equality embodied in the constitution. It is our hope that enough women will be elected without having to create additional positions.
Centre for Rights Education and Awareness (CREAW) is working towards this by training women on leadership and strategic campaign planning in different counties.
Wajibu Wetu Programme under the Women Leadership and Governance supported by Forum Syd Kenya
Training by Centre for Rights Education and Awareness (CREAW) supported by Forum Syd Kenya in actualizing the 2/3 gender principle, the best solution is to have more women seek to be elected and therefore increase the chances of having more women in influential positions. For this to happen women have to be facilitated with knowledge skills and where possible resources to run strong campaigns.
Women’s issues continue to matter now more than ever because a huge gender gap exists in many parts of the world today.
CAUGHT ON NEWS: Documentary on the Access to justice Programme that seeks to address issues with unequal access to justice through various strategies e.g. Legal representation, capacity building of community members, working through smart networks and partnering with #GBV (Gender Based Violence) service providers.

Merti residents demonstrating increased deaths of mothers from preventable causes. They claim deaths violated their right to life
Residents of Merti sub county have today took to the streets aggrieved by recurring maternal deaths due to lack of equipments and absence of ambulances to transport patients to Isiolo for specialised procedures.
The protesters, mainly mothers directed their anger towards county government of Isiolo for failing to equip Merti health centre despite millions set aside for health sector.
According to the protesters, two mothers have lost their lives in the last one week because of pregnancy related complications since there was no ambulance on standby to transport them to Isiolo.
One protester told Isiolo Newswire “one woman was referred to Isiolo but later died because there was no ambulance to take her to Isiolo. It’s the duty of County Government protect women against unnecessary loss of life related to pregnancy and childbirth”.
Protesters demanded county government to ensure that all the necessary facilities and resources were available to prevent avoidable loss of lives.
Isiolo County has one of the highest maternal deaths in the country owing to lack of infrastructure and nomadic lifestyles.
Since health sector is devolved, its the primary duty of county government to ensure residents have access to proper healthcare.
