Today in Nairobi, the KBEST Program implemented by Colleges and Institutes Canada (CICan) convened a 'Leadership for Gender and Inclusion in TVET' workshop in collaboration with the The National Gender and Equality Commission-Kenya and The AECF through their investee Queen Dada. Spearheaded by Joel Oloo (STA, KBEST) and Linet Tanui (Gender Specialist, KBEST), and facilitated by Josephine Kagucia (Principal Research Officer, NGEC), Jael Amati (Gender Specialist, AECF), and Winnie Barawa (Queen Dada), the workshop brought together leaders from 24 partner TVET institutions. The forum focused on strengthening gender-responsive leadership and management, tracking progress on Gender Equality and Inclusion (GEI) initiatives, and co-creating practical solutions to advance equitable access, participation, and success for all learners. Key highlights included; Deep dives into gender-responsive leadership and Gender Responsive Budgeting (GRB), a compelling business case for establishing daycare centres within TVET institutions, inspiring institutional showcases of innovative GEI initiatives and collective reflection on sustainable and inclusive next steps. This impactful engagement reaffirmed a shared commitment to transforming TVET institutions into safe, inclusive, and empowering spaces- where every learner, regardless of gender, disability status, religion, or background, can thrive. Alongside our partners, we are committed to championing bold, gender-transformative leadership for inclusive futures. #NikosetnaTVET
