🌍 WoMin in partnership with Samburu Women Trust is co-hosting a Capacity Building training today in Nanyuki, Laikipia County.
✊🏾 Drawing together women from Lamu, Laikipia, Baringo, Kwale, Siolo, Elgeyo Marakwet, Marsabit and Taita Taveta Counties, the training is a vital space for women from communities impacted by big extractive industries, mining and large land investments. The aim of the space is to share stories and experiences, and deepen collective knowledge on and as well as build solidarity for women and community's efforts to protect their lands and resources from extractivism.
🌾Together, these women hope to strengthen their organising in defence of their lands and communities! They will work together to build alternative visions of "development" - the YES - as part of their organising and campaigns going forward. This activity is part of a Month of Action on the Right to Say NO.
