About

With over 8 years’ experience in community development, I have built and sustained a passion for working with women, girls, and marginalised groups; supporting strategies for their inclusion in community development and decision-making at different levels, empowerment and realisation of rights and agency. This interest has led to me to focus programming efforts to gender equality and social inclusion; researching strategies to ensure that programmes move from sensitivity to transformative programming. This implies that programmes that I manage, and support are focused on women, girls, and marginalised groups’ empowerment and movement into leadership positions instead of just inclusion and participation. I, therefore, continuously seek capacity development in areas that will give me a good pedestal to advocate for changes in policies (scripted and un-scripted), and structures that will result in improved social outcomes and empowerment for women, girls, and marginalised groups.
