BREAKING THE SILENCE
: A Powerful Dialogue at Olobelibel Village
In partnership with Zinduka-EV and Rainworkers, Enkakenya Sidai Initiative held a powerful community dialogue with 60 women at Olobelibel Village, creating a safe space for honest conversations on issues affecting women, girls and families.
The dialogue focused on Female Ge***al Mutilation (FGM), child marriage, teenage pregnancy, maternal health and safe motherhood—issues that remain deeply interconnected and require collective community action.
The conversation was open, honest and very engaging. The women shared their lived experiences, raised important questions, challenged harmful practices and explored practical solutions for protecting girls, supporting teenage mothers and ensuring that every woman has access to safe and respectful maternal healthcare.
💬 When women are given a voice, communities begin to find solutions.
The dialogue reminded us that ending FGM, child marriage and teenage pregnancy is not the responsibility of one person or one organisation. It requires women, men, parents, elders, leaders, health workers, young people and community organisations to work together.
We are grateful to the women of Olobelibel for their courage, openness and commitment to building a safer future for girls and women.
Together, we can protect our girls.
Together, we can save mothers.
Together, we can build a community where every woman and girl can thrive.

Empowering Young Mothers Through Culture and Enterprise
Enkakenya Sidai Initiative, in partnership with ForumCiv, has successfully concluded a transformative two-day beadwork training aimed at empowering young mothers with practical skills to revitalize the traditional beadwork industry while creating sustainable livelihoods.
The training equipped participants with modern bead finishing techniques, product packaging skills, patenting and intellectual property awareness, and a business-oriented approach to transforming their craftsmanship into market-ready products.
By blending culture with entrepreneurship, we are enabling young mothers to preserve Maasai heritage, increase their incomes, and build resilient futures for their families.
We extend our sincere gratitude to ForumCiv for their invaluable partnership and commitment to women's economic empowerment.
