Something powerful happened at Technical University of Kenya

Through art, young people expressed themselves, actively shaping conversations on peace, identity, and belonging.

For students from Technical University of Kenya Kenyatta University and University of Nairobi, it wasn’t just about performance. It was a movement on addressing PVE.

It seeks to disrupt radicalization pathways and support a holistic reintegration of individuals affected by violent extremism.

Did you know 75% of Kenya's population is under 35?
Youth in informal settlements like Kibera, Mathare, and Korogocho are often targeted by extremist recruiters. But youth + arts = a powerful shield.

Radicalization is a process – and so is prevention.
At our event, students performed powerful plays and spoken-word pieces on radicalization because art reaches where bullets cannot.
Carry your smiles. Carry your voice.

❓ What’s the first word that comes to mind when you hear “violent extremism”?
Fear? Anger? Silence?

Now what about THEATRE?
Hope? Voice? Courage?

Exactly. That’s why we’re using arts to fight extremism. Drop a 🎭 if you agree.
