SUPPORT A GIRL. RESTORE HER DIGNITY.

As we mark Menstrual Hygiene Day 2026, Generation Guiders continues to stand with vulnerable girls facing period poverty in our communities.
Many girls miss school every month because they cannot afford sanitary pads.

Together, we can change this reality.
We are calling upon friends, partners, leaders, and well-wishers to join our campaign by supporting us with sanitary pads or financial contributions.
Every donation helps a girl stay in school, gain confidence, and manage her menstrual health with dignity.
Let us come together and make a difference.

One of the most devastating parts of leaving abusive relationship is realizing…
The abuse doesn’t always end when the relationship does.
Sometimes it spreads.

Suddenly the people around you start saying things like:
👉 “Maybe they didn’t mean it like that.”
👉 “Are you sure it was really abuse?”
👉 “You should just forgive them.”
👉 “They seem fine to me.”

And before long, you realize the manipulation followed you out of the relationship.

That’s what survivors of domestic violence call “flying monkeys.”

People who are manipulated into defending the abuser, spreading their version of events, minimizing your pain, or making you question your own reality.

Not everyone who defends an abuser is innocent.
Sometimes abuser and abuse recruits an audience.

Many of the myths surrounding consent and coercion on sexual violence can make victims and survivors feel as though they are somehow to blame. It can also make them feel that what happened to them wasn’t ‘real’ sexual violence.

Without consent, any kind of sexual activity is sexual violence.

Coercion is not consent. When we take away, challenge, or do not accept someone’s right to say “No,” the interaction is not consensual.

The slogan, “Yes Means Yes, No Means No,” is reductive. Sometimes, someone may be too afraid, incapable, or feel pressured to where saying “No” is not an option, or they may have already said, “No” but the other person is not willing to accept their “No” and continues to push for a “Yes.”
Similarly, someone may say “Yes,” when they have been made to feel like saying “No,” is not safe or accepted.

When someone is coerced, it is never their fault. The fault lies with the individual who created the circumstances where saying, “No” was not acceptable or safe. If you’ve been coerced, it’s not your fault and you do not deserve to feel burdened by any blame.

No woman should lose her life to such horrific violence.We should feel safe at all time in our Country .Not causing us live in fear due to persistent insecurity .
femicide and other forms of gender-based violence are not isolated incidents but part of a wider crisis that demands urgent national attention and action.This tragic incident reflects the continued and alarming pattern of violence against women and girls in Kenya.

PINK Genderwatch Network CBO had the opportunity to participate in the Thika Law Courts Dialogue Day under the theme “Engaging Citizens, Strengthening Justice.” This forum was important because it created a direct and safe space for citizens, civil society, and justice actors to openly engage on how the justice system serves the public.

We were able to share key gaps contributing to delays in justice for survivors of Sexual and Gender-Based Violence (SGBV) during the Thika Law Courts Dialogue Day,that included slow case handling, limited survivor support, inadequate information on court processes, fear and stigma, and weak coordination among justice actors. Such delays deny survivors timely justice and healing.
Through partnership, coordination, and a survivor-centred approach, we can reduce delays, strengthen access to justice, and ensure survivors are supported with dignity, care, and timely responses.

Together, we can do better for survivors of SGBV. 💜
