“Youth-led initiatives promoting peace in Kenya” is part of the “Let Peace Win Campaign”, launched by the UWIANO Platform, with the support of UNDP Kenya, to foster greater commitment to peaceful elections and increase youth participation in the 2022 General Elections and beyond.

To ensure Kenya meets its immediate, medium, and long-term development aspirations, the Campaign aims at mobilizing youth’s participation to construct steady and peaceful societies and to develop policies to achieve SDG 16 of the 2030 Agenda, ‘Peace, Justice and Strong Institutions.’ This Focus Note presents a selection of articles highlighting various youth-led initiatives promoting peace in Kenya, especially ahead of the elections in 2022.

We hope they will be great conversation starters that will encourage engagement of the youth in democratic processes.
