Today marks the end of #RewriteHerStory Season II TV Series on Citizen TV Kenya, this time, bringing you stories of adolescent girls and young women from Tana River County in Partnership with Janet Mbugua and Inua Dada Foundation.
Tana River is among the ten counties hard hit by the ongoing drought, thus negatively impacting many families. The situation has forced majority of families to migrate to other areas in search of water and pasture, being a pastoralist community. Many girls have been moved to other places where there is no school and hence are busy helping out their parents to cope with the situation.
During this time, cases of early marriages, FGM, child labour, GBV, school drop outs have increased. There is nowhere to run to for many girls and young women, with parents opting to ‘sell’ them off in exchange for money so that they can survive.
