Empowering Girls Together. Shaping the Future.


For the past 10 years, Zinduka has been working alongside local communities, partner organizations, and families in various regions of Kenya. Through educational programs, workshops, and community-based projects, we reach thousands of people every year and empower girls, women, and their communities in a sustainable way.

Our projects and campaigns create long-term opportunities and support local processes of change.

Our Approaches

FGM/C is deeply rooted in social norms, traditions, and societal structures. That is why Zinduka focuses on community-based, long-term approaches that actively involve local communities in processes of change.

TRANSFORMATIVE

We support communities as they challenge social norms and develop new perspectives.

Our Projects

Sustainable change does not come from a single project, but rather from many interlinked measures. That is why Zinduka combines protection, education, community work, and advocacy into a holistic approach. Together with local partner organizations, we develop projects that empower girls, strengthen communities, and create long-term prospects. All of our projects share a common goal: to end FGM/C once and for all and to enable girls and women to lead self-determined lives.

    Mind The Clit

    Visible for self-determination. Speaking out against taboos.
I am glad to have learned about FGM and its effects. Education helps prevent early marriage among girls. This training has empowered me as a young person, and with this knowledge, I feel capable of starting a business with the limited resources I have. This will enable me to secure a livelihood and avoid the struggles many young people face in trying to survive.
