This is such an important conversation! Making technology accessible to women in rural and Agricultural livelihoods can transform lives, foster sustainable growth and innovation. #InclusiveTech #Inclusion #TechnologyForAll #Empowerment
I will be speaking at the Gender Inclusion Summit, where I’ll be discussing a topic close to my heart: Making Technology Accessible to Women in Rural and Agricultural Livelihoods. In today's rapidly evolving world, we must ensure women in rural areas have access to the tools and knowledge needed to thrive in agricultural sectors. Technology can be a powerful enabler, and I'll be sharing key lessons on how to break down barriers, foster inclusion, and empower these incredible women to harness the potential of tech for sustainable growth. As we focus on equitable technology, I'm excited to contribute to the conversation and inspire action that helps bridge the digital divide, especially in the climate space 🌍. Let’s work together to create more inclusive opportunities for women everywhere.

It's inspiring to see such collaboration between civil society, government, and development partners for sustainable progress!🌱 ✨The Local Action Plans (LAP III) will surely create a great transformative impact for local communities!💡
Today, I had the privilege of joining fellow CSOs, county government, and development partners to co-create the Local Action Plans (LAP III) for 2024-2027 in Elgeyo Marakwet County. Together, we are charting a path toward sustainable development by leveraging the principles of Open Government Partnership (OGP) for greater transparency, accountability, and collaboration. Excited to see the transformative impact this will have on our communities as we continue to empower local voices and drive positive change!
