Review for Africa Center for Engendered Security, Nairobi, , Kenya

Rating: 5 stars  

SOWED gave the youth an agenda. It was as simple as organize, register and reach out to fight violence against women and children. They gave us training, gave us tools, and sent us forth. We formed the group -Je Wajua (Do You Know) a youth self help group registered as a community based organization with the objective of creating awareness of the link between HIV/AIDs and Gender and Based Violence. Our target is primary schools in slums. So far we have had 29 awareness sessions in 10 schools focusing on primary prevention of child abuse, and HIV/AIDs. SOWED Kenya, has been walking with us since 2009. We are now scaling up thanks to SOWED. They provide us with sub-grants and the profile. We are a group of 36 young people between 18 years and 27.
