Narok county first lady has laid tremendous plans to eradicate gender based violence in narok county. The case of early marriages, FGM and school drop oou will soon be forgotten vice in narok.
Gender-based violence is a human rights violation, a public health challenge, and a barrier to civic, social, political, and economic participation.
The vice undermines not only the safety, dignity, overall health
status, and human rights of the millions of individuals who experience it, but also the public health, economic stability, and security of nations.
Gender-based violence cuts across ethnicity, race, class, religion, education level, and international borders. An estimated one in three women worldwide has been beaten, coerced into sex, or otherwise abused in her lifetime.
Although statistics on the prevalence of violence vary, the scale is tremendous, the scope is
vast, and the consequences for individuals, families, communities, and countries are devastating.
It is vital to promote the rights of all individuals and reduce gender-based violence while mitigating its harmful effects on individuals and communities.
Unless women, girls, men, and boys fully enjoy their human rights and are free from violence, progress toward development will fall short.
Through the First lady initiative Narok county will partner with Various non-governmental organizations, faith-based organizations, and host government institutions to:
Increase awareness of the scope of the problem and its impact
Improve services for survivors of violence Strengthen prevention efforts.
