During our safe space session in Kibera, we shared stories, laughter and dignity. We brought sanitary towels and diapers for girls with disabilities. Not charity, but care. Because every girl deserves to be seen. #Inclusion

The RH Policy 2022-2032 was meant to empower Kenyans, but it limits access & ignores critical rights. A policy that fails to prioritize real healthcare solutions fails its people. We must demand a better, inclusive policy for all Kenyans. @CDisability @Wemos .#RejecttheRHpolicy
