Together with the Periamma<\/a> we train and educate teachers and students in 24 different schools located in some of the largest slums in Nairobi and the rural Rift Valley until May 2019. The focus is on the taboo topics of sexuality and gender. The project is funded by CISU - Civil Society in Development.<\/a> Our local project coordinator Carsten takes you into the Kenyan classroom in a story from the project.<\/p>\n

With November on the calendar, the short rainy season is in full swing in Kenya. However, not all areas of Kenya get to enjoy the life-giving drops. In Baringo in the Rift Valley, they haven't seen rain for months and it's leaving its mark everywhere - it's dry and the lack of water makes it difficult to wash and prioritise hygiene.<\/p>\n

In the classroom, we are busy teaching young people about gender and sexuality. These are subjects that are unfortunately neglected in schools in Kenya, with disastrous consequences. It's crucial that young people are given the opportunity to put into words what they want to know more about.<\/p>\n

All the young people are asked to write down their questions on a piece of paper. No names, as this keeps everyone anonymous and allows them to ask questions that they are either too shy, nervous or unsure to ask openly in the classroom.<\/p>\n\r\n\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
