SDG Program
The project intends to address many global social, economic, and environmental issues. The 17 SDGs are meant to serve as a global call to action to eradicate poverty, safeguard the environment, and guarantee that everyone lives in peace and prosperity. In light of this, GROOTS Kenya identifies that the SDGs offer a framework for gauging progress that has been made towards particular objectives and goals and enables governments, organizations, and people to monitor their development through time. This makes it simpler to see where improvements are being made and where work still needs to be done. GROOTS Kenya’s main concentration for this project is on SDG 5 “Gender Equality.” To respond to the indicators under Gender Equality, GROOTS Kenya will require the engagement of everyone in the community, including women, men, and all stakeholders working on Gender Equality issues. This engagement will include; advocating for policies that promote gender equality, such as equal pay for equal work, the elimination of gender-based violence and discrimination, access to healthcare and education, raising awareness about the importance of gender equality and the impact of gender-based violence and discrimination through community outreach, education campaigns, and social media engagement, and engaging men as allies in the fight for gender equality. This can involve education and awareness-raising campaigns targeted at men, as well as providing support and resources to men who want to become advocates for gender equality.
