@cedgg_2001 , as host of the @RiftBudgetHub , paid a courtesy call to the @NakuruCountyGov Directorate of Health Services, where the team met with the Chief Officer, Public Health, and her team to discuss the planned tracking of Primary Health Care (PHC) funds. The engagement focused on examining PHC budget allocations, disbursements and expenditure, as well as public participation, transparency and accountability in the management of health financing. Following the discussions, the teams agreed on three health facilities, Miroreni, Arฤฉmi and Rhonda Health Centres, where the social accountability exercise will be undertaken. The process will also gather citizens' perspectives on how health financing decisions are affecting service delivery, with findings expected to inform dialogue with the County Health Management Team and citizen advocacy for improved health financing. #HakiNaUongoziBora โ€“ at Nakuru, Kenya

Sustained media reporting and coverage of GBV and SEAH can play a critical role in driving the fight against abuse and exploitation. The responsibility goes beyond reporting incidents; it also means asking what is being done to prevent them, amplifying solutions, tracking the impact of interventions, and holding institutions accountable for the commitments they make. When the media consistently follows the story from the problem to the response and its results, it can help keep safeguarding on the public agenda and strengthen the push for safer environments where every athlete can participate with dignity and protection. ๐ŸŽฅ courtesy KASS TV @UNFPAKen @UNFPA @MediaCouncilK #EndGBVandSEAHNow #Safeguarding #SafeSport #HakiNaUongoziBora โ€“ at Nakuru, Kenya

The conversation is underway, and the voices of the athletics community are taking centre stage. Today, @cedgg_2001 and the @MediaCouncilK with the support from @UNFPAKen are bringing journalists into a candid conversation with athletes and coaches on Gender-Based Violence (GBV) and Sexual Exploitation, Abuse and Harassment (SEAH) in athletics. Participants are sharing their experiences, the progress made in strengthening safeguarding, and the gaps that still require attention. The discussion is opening a direct window into the realities within athletics and the issues that often remain unseen or underreported. 1/2 #EndGBVandSEAHNow #Safeguarding #SafeSport #HakiNaUongoziBora โ€“ at Iten Tambach, Kenya

The insights shared are helping journalists understand GBV and SEAH from the perspective of those directly within the athletics environment. By listening to the challenges, achievements and outstanding gaps, the media can approach these stories with greater context, sensitivity and understanding, strengthening responsible reporting and ensuring that the experiences of athletes are told accurately and ethically. Better understanding leads to better stories, and better stories can help keep safeguarding on the agenda. 2/2 @UNFPAKen @UNFPA @MediaCouncilK #EndGBVandSEAHNow #Safeguarding #SafeSport #HakiNaUongoziBora โ€“ at Iten Tambach, Kenya

Today, we are turning the spotlight to the legal hurdles that can leave athletes exposed to abuse and exploitation. The legal architecture surrounding GBV, SEA, trafficking and forced labour can often feel complex, yet gaps in understanding rights, protections and available remedies can create room for violations to go unreported or unresolved. At our legal sensitization session in Iten, athletes are engaging in an open dialogue to examine these challenges, share experiences, and speak candidly about the legal barriers they encounter within the athletics environment. @UNFPAKen @UNFPA @AthleticsKENYA #EndGBVandSEAHNow #Safeguarding #SafeSport #HakiNaUongoziBora โ€“ at Iten Tambach, Kenya

This is a conversation about more than knowing the law. It is about understanding where protection exists, where the gaps are, what happens when a violation is reported, and how athletes can seek appropriate support and redress. Through dialogue with legal and criminal justice actors and other athletics stakeholders, participants are exploring practical solutions to the legal issues that can enable exploitation and abuse, while strengthening their confidence to recognize violations, report safely, and exercise their rights. @UNFPAKen @UNFPA #EndGBVandSEAHNow #Safeguarding #SafeSport #HakiNaUongoziBora โ€“ at Iten Tambach, Kenya

Today in Iten, the conversation moves from safeguarding systems to the well-being of athletes. As part of @cedgg_2001 ongoing work with @UNFPAKen and athletics stakeholders to strengthen protection from GBV, SEA and TFGBV, we are engaging athletes and key athletics stakeholders in an open wellness dialogue. The session creates a safe space for athletes to speak freely about the threats and challenges they encounter within and beyond training environments, and how these experiences affect their emotional well-being, confidence, relationships, and day-to-day activities. โ€“ at Iten Tambach, Kenya

The discussion is also helping participants recognize the psychological and emotional effects of abuse, understand available support, and explore practical approaches to coping, self-care, peer support, safe disclosure, confidentiality and referral to professional services. By listening to athletes and connecting their experiences with psychosocial support and other relevant stakeholders, the session seeks to strengthen their ability to protect their well-being, support one another appropriately, and access help when needed. #EndGBVandSEAHNow #Safeguarding #SafeSport #HakiNaUongoziBora โ€“ at Iten Tambach, Kenya
