The Problem Facing
Young Girls In Kenya

In Kenya, households must make two arduous trips daily to obtain the water needed for drinking, cooking, and cleaning. Women and children spend multiple hours walking a total of 3.4 kilometers in order to acquire gallons of water for survival; however, this journey is fraught with danger due to human predators such as rape or abduction alongside animal hazards.

Furthermore, African men are often indoctrinated with the belief that it is acceptable to kidnap and sell girls as sex objects, rape them, practice FGM, or take child brides. In order for such predation to be abolished once and for all, a fundamental cultural shift must occur; the education of males combined with the strengthening of female autonomy be at the forefront of this endeavor.
