Elimination Of Violence Against Women And Girls

Ending violence against women and girls remains one of the most serious and ongoing challenges worldwide. INUA KIKE focuses on Elimination of Violence against Women & Girls in urban informal settlements and rural areas of Kenya by facilitating development, promotion and enforcement of appropriate mechanisms for prevention, protection and response to violence against women.

We mobilize, organize and strengthen grass-roots networks, structures and mechanisms for prevention and effective response to VAWG at all levels. This includes establishment and/or strengthening of community working groups, community VAWG resource centers, as well as support to champions of change and community resource persons.

INUA KIKE establishes multi-sectoral community VAWG working groups with membership from government, girls/women and youth groups.
