Annual Report 2022

The development of the FIDA-Kenya 2022 Annual Report has been coordinated by Christabella Barasa, Monitoring and Evaluation Lead, and Moses Okinyi the Public Relations and Communications Lead. We would also like to thank FIDA-Kenya’s staff for sharing the information, analysis, and documentation that has informed the content of this report. In addition, we sincerely thank the Governing Council of FIDAKenya for the strategic leadership they provided to the Secretariat during the year.

Over the course of its 37-year history, FIDA-Kenya has fought for women’s rights, improved access to justice for over 4,000,000 women through legal aid, and advocated for legislation that safeguards women’s rights through policy and legislative lobbying. These actions have improved the lives of women.

Throughout 2022 we continued promoting access to justice for thousands of women through the provision of legal aid, self-representation training to women and women in custody, supporting pro bono lawyers’ scheme, legal representation, and strategic impact litigation on matters ranging from child custody and maintenance, land and matrimonial disputes, labor, and economic rights.

In 2020, when the Covid-19 pandemic worsened the vulnerability patterns for victims of SGBV, FIDA-Kenya launched its toll-free line to clients to ease reporting of cases and obtaining support. Another key area of intervention is the participation of girls and women in political, economic/social leadership, and governance systems, through capacity-strengthening sessions for women leaders at the grassroots and county levels and for women-led CBOs and feminist groups.
