16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence 2023 | Exploring Online Gender-Based Violence Among Youth in Kenya

In partnership with Young Women Leaders Connect(YWLC), The Youth Cafe organized a Twitter(X) space and chat discussion on December 7, 2023, centred around the theme 'Exploring Online Gender-Based Violence Among Youth in Kenya.' A turnout of 635 participants, composed of young individuals and youth organizations, actively engaged in the live discourse on Twitter(X). Additionally, many viewers continued to join the conversation and interacted with the Twitter(X) recording post-event. The discussions provided an invaluable platform for raising awareness, fostering dialogue, and encouraging meaningful interactions surrounding the critical issue of online gender-based violence affecting the youth in Kenya.

Youth Excel Releases Global Gender and Inclusion Analysis

Youth Excel aims to advance gender equality by using research, learning, and data to change systems and transform norms, shifting power differentials so that diverse youth—including youth of all genders in different age categories—influence development agendas and development decision making. In late 2020, we conducted a Global GESI Analysis through desk research to (1) compile data and identify broad trends in line with Youth Excel’s work; (2) provide recommendations for Youth Excel activities.
