Indigenous Women Council- Kenya is a network of indigenous women dedicated to economic empowerment, amplification of women’s voices, rights, and leadership.

The objective of IWC is to promote equal rights, opportunities, and safe spaces for indigenous women while promoting their rights for collective prosperity.

Our areas of focus include:

• Influence the VOICE and Leadership of Indigenous Women
• Advocate for Policy
• Build Capacity

Indigenous women from Kenya’s fourteen ASAL counties are members of the movement, both as individuals and as corporate members through women’s action organisations.

In order for women to serve as protectors in their local communities and advocate for the rights of women and girls in their society, it is important to foster common ground with shared goals between women’s networks at the grassroots level and other social movements.

SWT is thus guided by the leadership and local women who are the most important decision-making entity in the women’s movement developing.

Indigenous women have understood, via indigenous knowledge and experiential learning, that addressing the complex circumstances and difficulties confronting indigenous women requires a multi-pronged approach.
