In this publication, we spotlight the leadership journeys of 25 Women’s Rights Organizations (WROs) that have been supported by CREAW under the WVL program. Each of these women leaders have grown into a driving force for change, tackling some of the most pressing issues facing women and girls today, ranging from gender-based violence and economic inequality to reproductive health rights and political participation. As you explore the pages of this book, you will encounter the diverse and dynamic approaches these women have employed to empower women and girls. Their journeys are marked by resilience, creativity, and an unwavering commitment to justice and equity.

The impact of their work extends beyond the individual lives they touch; it resonates across the nation, contributing to a broader movement that seeks to reshape Kenya into a society where every woman and girl can realize her full potential. We invite you to be inspired by their stories, to learn from their experiences, and to join us in celebrating their achievements.
