Our Organization

Driving Protection and Empowerment Together

Youth Vision Kenya was founded in 2024 by a group of passionate youth and women leaders in Mandera County, united by a common goal to end harmful practices like FGM, promote gender equality, and protect children. The organization addresses deep-rooted challenges facing young people and women, including gender-based violence, lack of menstrual health education, and limited access to empowerment opportunities. Through grassroots advocacy, partnerships, and inclusive programming, Youth Vision Kenya works to uplift communities and champion dignity, protection, and equality.
