🎉CELEBRATING A DECADE OF CITIZEN ACTION THROUGH STORYTELLING!🥳

Manyatta Africa was proud to join esteemed Partners under the programme, invited development partners, governance champions, and citizens at Century Cinemax, Two Rivers Mall, Nairobi, for the premiere screening of the "Ni Wajibu Wetu" Docu-Film.

The documentary captured ten years of inspiring citizen-led action, showcasing how communities across Kenya have championed accountability, democratic participation, human rights, and good governance. Through compelling stories of resilience and impact, the film highlighted the transformative power of active citizenship in shaping a more inclusive and responsive society.

The premiere marked the culmination of the Wajibu Wetu Conference hosted by ForumCiv Eastern & Southern Africa in partnership with the Embassy of Sweden in Nairobi bringing together voices committed to strengthening democracy and civic engagement in Kenya.

Manyatta Africa was honored to have its Executive Director, Mr. Nicholas Songora, HSC, served as the official Master of Ceremony throughout the conference proceedings and the transition to the prestigious Docu-Film premiere. His role reflected Manyatta Africa's commitment to creating meaningful spaces for dialogue, storytelling, learning, and collective action.

As an organization leveraging creative arts, media, technology, and community engagement to drive social transformation, we recognize the power of storytelling not only to document change but also to inspire new generations of change makers.

🎥 Stories preserve our journey.

Day Three of the Convening brought powerful reflections, bold conversations, and renewed commitment towards defending democracy, advancing accountability, and amplifying voices from the margins.

As Manyatta Africa, we were honored to participate in transformative discussions exploring the role of civil society in promoting government accountability, strengthening good governance, advancing gender equality, and creating inclusive democratic spaces for young people, women, and marginalized communities.

The conversations reminded us that democracy is strongest when every voice is heard, every citizen feels represented, and leadership remains accountable to the people. From the thought-provoking panel discussions to inspiring artivism performances and the powerful reflections shared during the convening, the space created an important opportunity to reimagine the future of civic engagement in Kenya.

As a creative, tech and Media organization, we remain committed to building inclusive spaces for youth participation, strengthening community voices, promoting peaceful coexistence, and advancing the values of Human Fraternity through people-centered approaches and collective action.

Congratulations to our partners ForumCiv Eastern & Southern Africa and the Embassy of Sweden in Nairobi for creating such a timely and transformative platform. The conversations may have ended, but the responsibility to protect democracy and shape inclusive societies continues with all of us.

Day Two of the Convening in Nairobi was a powerful reminder that civil society continues to play a critical role in shaping Kenya’s democratic future beyond the ballot.

Courtesy of our partners ForumCiv Eastern & Southern Africa and Embassy of Sweden in Nairobi, our team at Manyatta Africa was honored to engage alongside fellow change-makers, creatives, governance actors, and development partners in thought-provoking conversations around civic space, accountability, inclusion, and citizen participation. From the keynote reflections on strengthening democracy after the 2022 elections to the vibrant panel discussions on marginalized voices reclaiming space in governance, the convening created a meaningful platform for reflection, learning, and solidarity.

The conversations reaffirmed one important truth: sustainable democracy must intentionally include young people, women, marginalized communities, and grassroots voices at the center of decision-making. Democracy is not sustained by elections alone, it lives through active citizenship, protected civic spaces, courageous conversations, and collective responsibility.

As an organization, we remain committed to promoting meaningful youth participation, participatory governance, inclusion, peacebuilding, and community-driven transformation while advancing the spirit and values of Human Fraternity.
