Earlier this week,we convened a Policy Dialogue to address the systemic vulnerabilities women and persons with disabilities (PWDs) encounter within digital ecosystems.

Equitable digital transformation requires that protective infrastructure be engineered with universal accessibility, ensuring that safety mechanisms do not inadvertently marginalize PWDs.
Prioritizing Inclusive Architecture:We emphasized that digital security frameworks must be fundamentally accessible.
Neutralizing Information Manipulation:We formulated strategies to dismantle disinformation campaigns designed to disenfranchise vulnerable populations and erode democratic integrity.
Our discourse centered on three primary objectives:
Mitigating Targeted Threats:We analyzed the intersectional risks that disproportionately compromise the digital autonomy of women and PWDs, necessitating robust protection protocols.
As digital integration becomes foundational to societal participation, safeguarding these groups from targeted harassment, data exploitation, and information manipulation is an urgent imperative.
We are pleased to announce the launch of Phase B of the Fact First: Verify and Amplify Project implemented with support from @EUinKenya European Union through TrustLab.

#FactFirstVerifyAndAmplify #DisabilityInclusion #FactChecking
Through this project, we aim to bridge these gaps by creating inclusive learning opportunities, strengthening digital resilience, and empowering participants with the tools needed to navigate today's complex information environment.
For too long, persons with disabilities have faced barriers to accessing digital skills, online safety resources, and meaningful participation in information integrity initiatives.
This new phase places a strong focus on disability inclusion in digital spaces,ensuring that persons with disabilities are not left behind in efforts to promote digital safety, cybersecurity, fact-checking, and the fight against information manipulation.
Last week, we hosted a dynamic training and mentorship session at our Kendu Bay office, bringing together young people to explore emerging opportunities within sustainable agriculture and circular economy systems. 🌱♻️
#YouthVoice #BSFFarming #SustainableAgriculture
As communities continue to navigate economic and environmental challenges, creating spaces where young people can access practical knowledge, innovation, and mentorship remains essential.
We appreciate the technical support and knowledge shared by facilitators from:
🎯 @icipe International Centre of Insect Physiology and Ecology -Homabay
🎯 @kalromkulima Kenya Agricultural and Livestock Research Organization -Kisii
🎯 Ministry of Agriculture -Homabay
What stood out throughout the session was the level of engagement from the young people in attendance ;from conversations around climate-smart agriculture and entrepreneurship to reflections on the future of food systems, green jobs, and community resilience.
Beyond BSF farming, the training also introduced participants to complementary agribusiness opportunities through BRAINS sessions on:
🐝 Beekeeping
🌾 Nyota beans cultivation
🍊 Fruit farming
📚 VIPPT
Participants engaged in practical discussions on how locally available organic waste can be repurposed into high-value products such as protein-rich animal feed and organic manure, creating pathways for both environmental sustainability and youth-led enterprise development.
