I am currently the Executive Director of the Young Women's Leadership Institute. My work experience includes working a Field Officer for CARE International in Kenya at the Dadaab refugee camps in North Eastern Kenya. This was on a project on elimination of female genital cutting among the Somali refugees. I have done several consultancy jobs with human rights organisations on work on gender, women's rights and advocacy. I worked as a Research Assistant for the Heinrich Boll Foundation for a book project on Mapping out of Best Practices on Women's Rights in Kenya. I was a Resource Person for Ford Foundation for a project dubbed 'Nairobi+21' which was reflecting on 21 years after the Women's Conference in Nairobi (1985). I was a part of the team that reviewed Ford Foundation's work in the East African region for the last 21 years and my contribution was in assessing the involvement of the younger generation in advancing the rights of women. The book documenting that process is out and another book that outlines the Ford Foundation sector reviews will be by the end of this year.
