In a strong show of grassroots leadership, chairpersons of widow groups from Siaya, Kisumu, Migori, and Homa Bay came together under the Widows Empowerment Program for a key progress review meeting.
The gathering aimed to evaluate the journey so far, celebrate wins, and openly address the challenges that still remain.
Through honest dialogue, the women leaders exchanged stories, solutions, and strategies from their respective communities.
It was not just a meeting—it was a mirror. A chance to see what’s working, what’s not, and how they can support each other going forward.
At the heart of this program is a simple principle: widows must lead the change they seek. By placing these leaders at the centre, the program stays rooted in reality—shaped by real experiences and real needs.
The session closed with renewed commitment to build a future where widows aren’t just helped—they are heard, respected, and given the tools to thrive.
Their courage, insights, and resilience continue to fuel the vision of a community where no widow is left behind.
