About
CAWE KENYA
CAWE KENYA is a Non Governmental Organization that is committed to provide support to the marginalized communities in Kerio Valley. We aim to increase our commitment towards eradicating FGM/C, uplifting the lives of widows of conflict and bringing together young men from the battlefield and engaging them in sports.
One of the key components of this movement is the emphasis on women’s empowerment. By providing skills training, educational opportunities and access to resources, women in Kerio Valley are gaining the tools and confidence to assert their rights and advocate fo change. The empowerment is not only transforming individual lives but also leading to the formation of women-led groups and networks that collectively challenge harmful practices and advocate for gender equality.
To be a vibrant center in Kenya where every girl and woman can live without fear violence, discrimination or oppression related to harmful cultural practices where communities collaboratively work towards sustainable peace building and development advocacy and empowerment.
To eradicate female genital mutilation (FGM) empower women and girls and promote peace building initiatives in conflict affected areas through education, advocacy and community led initiatives.
