The forum served as an important platform to sensitize young people on Technology-Facilitated Gender-Based Violence, equipping them with the knowledge to identify, prevent, and respond to online abuse that often silences women and girls during elections.

Democracy is stronger when young people participate, and when young women and girls have the opportunity to voice their views and contribute to leadership processes.
The forum helped strengthen the capacity of young women to engage meaningfully in governance and shape the future

These families have found safety after crossing the border into Kenya.

🌱 A tomato. A watermelon. A bag of vegetables.
They might seem ordinary, but in refugee camps and drought-prone areas, they can mean better nutrition, more income💸 and new opportunities for families.
That's why @WFP works with farmers to increase food production, reduce post-harvest losses and connect them to reliable markets.

🥬 What's for dinner tonight?
For Sande, the answer is simple: fresh vegetables she picked herself at a market in Kakuma Refugee Camp.
With @eu_echo support @WFP is able to provide life-saving assistance to people like Sande, enabling her to choose the food her family needs most. 💙
