The Ni Sisi Ni Sasa Village, Enhancing Youth Understanding Of Democratic Processes | Peoples Dialogue Festival 2024

The Ni Sisi Ni Sasa Village at the People Dialogue Festival is a dedicated platform designed for participants under 18 years old, aimed at amplifying their voices and facilitating dialogue on complex democratic concepts in a language they can understand. This ensures their meaningful inclusion in democratic and governance processes. Over the course of the festival, the Ni Sisi Ni Sasa Village empowered students from 16 high school students to explore various themes such as community impact, Article 10 of the Kenyan constitution, digital rights, mental health, conservation, and global frameworks for sustainable development, among others. Through networking opportunities and access to mentors and role models, the village encouraged positive change and inspired youth to engage in democracy actively.
