Security that protects women’s voices. HURIA met the Mombasa County Commissioner to introduce our UN Women-supported project. In 2022 we trained 40 women leaders in early warning & mediation; now we aim to link them to county security structures. #SaferElections #HURIA

#HURIA met the Coast Regional Police Commander, Ali Nuno, to introduce #RESTORECoast and discuss town halls that bring youth and security actors together. Lasting security depends on trust and trust is built through conversation. Thank you, Commander for your time and openess.
