AREAS OF FOCUS
PROBLEM STATEMENT:
Kenya has a population of 54 million women, according to the 2021 population estimates. Out of 54 million, 60% of these women live in rural areas without access to sustainable income. Most of these women are illiterate and live in extreme poverty resulting in:
- High poverty level, preventing access to education services.
- Dropping out of school because of teenage pregnancy.
- Forced early marriages as a source of income by family members.
- Lack of sanitary pads force girls to stay home during thier menstruation period, leading to poor performance at school and eventually dropping out.
These factors have led to high rates of illiteracy and under education among Kenyans, especially women and children. Our response at HIA is the Word of God to share the Good News, seek tangible solutions to reduce the numbers of illiteracy, build a community support system that is healthy, and social equity to live a fulfilled empowered life.
