The recently concluded fifth Women Political Participation (WPP) Academy by the Forum for Africa Women Educationalists (FAWE) was a residential five-day training. It targeted women who hold political positions in Kenya\u2019s government, women who vied in the 2022 Kenyan general election, young women aspiring to join politics whose age bracket is between 18 to 35 years, and student leaders. The participants were drawn from the 47 counties within Kenya.<\/p>\n

The academy sought to equip the participants with in-depth knowledge of Politics and Governance, International Legal frameworks, Transformative Leadership, Gender Mainstreaming, Disability mainstreaming, Communication, Public Relations, and Branding skills so that they are better positioned to navigate the political landscape.<\/p>\n

The goal of the academy\u2019s immersive training also equipped participants to effectively participate in political processes and raise their stakes as political leaders in Kenya and beyond borders. The training ensured that the women in politics appreciated their role in shaping the political narratives of their constituencies, country, and the continent of Africa by leveraging on the knowledge gained from the training through peer-to-peer learning and even inter-generational mentorship.<\/p>\n

At the opening of the fifth WPP academy, former Deputy Head of Mission, The Hague – Netherlands, and ex-Kenyan senator, Ambassador Judith Sijeny, informed the academy participants that it is important that they join a political party to rally critical support in their quest for leadership.<\/p>\n

\u201cPolitical parties wield great influence for you. As academy participants, you must identify parties that align with your values, however, your relevance in politics goes beyond within the confines of your respective political parties,\u201d she emphasized.<\/p>\n

Mr. Andiwo Obondo, one of the academy trainers iterated Ambassador Sijeny\u2019s take that mentors gained through intergenerational mentorship are crucial for political mileage. He further noted that male allyship is also important for women in politics especially because Africa\u2019s political terrain is patriarchal.<\/p>\n

According to the UN Women Report on Kenya\u2019s 2022 election analysis, while there was a nine percent increase in women\u2019s gubernatorial representation in Kenya, only seven women emerged as governors. This translates to 40 out of the 47 counties having male governors. This statistic affirms the male dominance Kenyan politics.<\/p>\n

Apart from the Woman Representative seat which is provided for within the Kenyan constitution in line with the two-thirds gender rule, six counties in Kenya; Garissa, Mandera, Marsabit, Kajiado, Samburu, and \u00a0Nyamira counties did not elect women in any other elective seat according to the UN report. In the Northern part of Kenya for example, cultural elders, also known as council of elders, are gatekeepers of political gates.<\/p>\n

One of the academy participants, Ms.Gedhia Mamo, who comes from Marsabit County noted that the council of elders can throw their weight behind a certain political candidate and that is enough to shift the scales at the ballot box and influence a positive outcome of an election. Ms Mamo vied for the Marsabit Woman Representative seat in 2022 Kenyan election and emerged second. She had initially eyed the Marsabit gubernatorial seat in 2022 but her Sakuye clan asked her to let go of that bid.<\/p>\n

Mr. Obondo urged the academy participants to view the election as a process and not an event. \u201cIt is important that you strategize as soon as an election event ends. Not 3 months to the election voting date,\u201d he clarified to the participants.<\/p>\n

\u201cElection involves research because manifestos must be informed by research.\u201d<\/p>\n

The academy participants were also informed about the relevance of having a campaign strategy. \u00a0They were advised to take heed and deploy tactics that suit the different political contexts and the unique circumstances they face. Especially in Africa, what applies in one county or country varies from another. The tactics applied by one candidate are surely different from another. This means that it is important to understand the legal frameworks that are in place to support women in politics so that they are equipped to not only fight for their rights\u00a0or fight against marginalization but also make use of tools like the Maputo protocol to steer their political course.<\/p>\n

\u201cPolitical parties and Election Management Bodies (EMBs) need to be sensitized on disability inclusion to ensure women in politics are not victims of marginalization by duty bearers.\u00a0This will ensure barriers that discriminate women with disabilities, especially in service delivery and politics are better addressed,\u201d said Hon Caroline Agwanda, an Advisor on disability inclusion.<\/p>\n

During the latest research launch on \u2018The State of Women in the Media: Coverage and Framing of Women in East African Media’<\/em> International Gender and Development consultant, Okumba Miruka, said it is important that journalists study gender so that it is seen in their work.<\/p>\n

Media as the fourth\u00a0estate is key in amplifying the stories of women by framing them from an objective and informed reporting lens. Women in\u00a0politics need to know how to leverage media for political mileage especially because media in Africa is perceived as patriarchal.<\/p>\n

FAWE\u2019s Deputy Executive Director and Head of Programmes, Ms. Teresa Omondi-Adeitan, noted that FAWE\u2019s strategic plan leans on building the capacity of boundary partners. \u00a0Last year, FAWE hosted journalists and editors to a gender-mainstreaming training<\/a> that also brought seasoned politicians on board so that both parties could better learn from each other. The academy\u2019s training which includes communication will complement the knowledge gained from the gender-mainstreaming training.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

In her closing remarks, Josephine Mwangi, WPP Programme Manager said the academy members are poised to spearhead the women’s political agenda beyond the WPP academy.<\/p>\n

She affirmed that their leadership should be felt in the African region and beyond because they have the right tools to pave the way for an inclusive and dynamic political landscape.<\/p>\n
