After a year of contact with Nicholas from Smart Nakuru and Wilde Ganzen our project in Mautamu, Kenya, is officially up and running! 🇳🇱🤝🇰🇪🤝🪿 Happy to have led this initiative from the DEAL Foundation’s side, guided by a vision of equal partnership and community-led action. Our project focuses on equipping widowed women and teenage girls with skills, supporting them in starting businesses, and increasing their economic participation. It aims to combat teenage pregnancies and (forced) marriages while enhancing livelihoods. What makes this project special is its respect for choice—no imposition, just opportunities. Smart Nakuru’s efforts in western Kenya empower these girls and women to shape their own futures. Thanks to everyone that was/is involved: Irthe Schoute , Hannah klasens, Joep van der Kruijk ,Cato Sloot, Marijn Becking, Jemima H., and Darlington Rukodza
