Economic disempowerment is directly linked to health challenges, the study on #WomenEconomicEmpowerment by @WRA_K has revealed. “I cannot get access to good health services due to high prices in health centers.” PARTICIPANT, 24YEARS, KAJIADO

To counter the barriers and to reach their aspirations, the @WRA_K research on #WhatWomenWant for #EconomicEmpowerment shows that access to financial resources through loans, grants, wages would be a major boost to women’s economic empowerment.

Women need their own money, full stop. This gives them the power of choice over their wealth, health and wellbeing. It gives them a voice. The @WRA_K survey on #WhatWomenWant for #EconomicEmpowerment drove this point home.

It's raining violence all over. Men truly suffer in silence. 😰😰
TRIGGER WARNING : GRAPHIC IMAGES ON FRAME 4 This is Elijah Matoke He was 52 years of age. He was a business man This case was brought to us by his daughter who is crying for justice for her father. We have been in contact and offered grief counselling to the family. Mr Matoke had met and married his second wife Ruth Chelagat in 2008 . At the time of marriage Ruth had three biological children and her brother. Mr Matoke other children remained with their mother. The couple had a large prosperous farm from which they were able to sell their farm produce. In 2023, Elijah started to lament that money was disappearing and two of his title deed had also disappeared. He told his older children that the marriage wasn't going well and his blood pressure was spiking, and it was going well for him as he was diabetic. On several occasions Ruth had threatened to kill him but it was mostly dismissed as people said their marriage was quarrelsome. 5th Dec, Ruth came in with a white jerrican, Matoke presumed it was water, she had once poured water. He went to sleep and around 3am he heard her rummaging around and asking her what was going on, she threatened to kill him. She removed the white jerrican and poured acid on him. He screamed for help but the neighbours assumed it was one of their quarrels. She put him on a motorbike and rushed him to hospital. The nurses noticed she had acid burns on her hands but she refused treatment. Instead she rushed to the police and reported an intruder had poured acid on her partner. The police got on the scene to find her children and her brother trying to get rid of evidence including the mattress. She was arrested together with her son. Mr Matoke suffered 40% acid burns including lose of one eye. He was able to record a voice note on what happened. Unfortunately his condition deteriorated rapidly and four days later he passed away. His daughter Claris is asking for justice for her father as her step brother has already been released from custody and is now threatening her. The matter is in Nakuru court and the family is asking for a lawyer to represent them and seek justice An advocate that can help this family #Usikimye

The survey by @WRA_K on #WhatWomenWant for #EconomicEmpowerment captured the women's economic dreams and aspirations, for example, a young woman simply put it: “I need financial support in order to achieve my dream”. Woman, 20 years, Kajiado.
