Our Work
Our Focus Areas
Our work focuses on removing barriers to education, promoting gender equality, and empowering girls and young people with the knowledge, skills, and opportunities they need to reach their full potential. Through evidence-based programmes, advocacy, research, and strategic partnerships, we have strengthened education systems and transform communities across Kenya.
1. School Retention and Re-entry
We work to ensure that every girl remains in school and completes her education, regardless of the challenges she faces. Through community engagement, policy advocacy, mentorship, and support for pregnant and parenting learners, we promote safe, inclusive learning environments where every learner can succeed.

2. Quality and Inclusive Education
Education is the foundation for social and economic transformation. We partner with schools, communities, and government institutions to improve access to quality education while promoting gender-responsive teaching practices, inclusive learning environments, and equitable opportunities for all learners, particularly girls and vulnerable children.

3. Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights (SRHR)
We empower adolescents and young people with accurate information, life skills, and access to youth-friendly services so they can make informed decisions about their health and wellbeing. Through advocacy, community engagement, and partnerships, we champion the sexual and reproductive health and rights of young people while promoting gender equality and dignity.
