Men as custodians of culture play a critical role in protecting girls from teenage pregnancy, early marriage, and all forms of GBV. In Narok East, CREAW engaged elders from the Ntulele community to discuss how they can champion the elimination of these harmful practices and promote girls’ education and school retention. Under the #ImarishaMsichana program, we continue to harness the power of community-driven solutions in safeguarding the rights and futures of girls.
