Team Kenya: School Related Gender Based Violence Community Action Research
Comic Relief awarded a grant of GBP 9,850 to Team Kenya for work in Kenya, dated 25 November 2015.
Overview
This project will address the prevalence of school related gender based violence (SRGBV) in a rural township in Western Kenya. The aim is to gain thorough reliable base-line information on its causes and extent, of which there is little current proven data, but much informal awareness. The research findings will then be used to help change public perceptions and eliminate SRGBV in this community. It will also support the existing small network of community leaders who are fighting SRGBV.The long term aim is to achieve an effective long term solution to the problem which is a core reason why girls fail to complete secondary or even primary education and remain trapped in poverty.
