Girls’ Agency in Focus: Lessons from Kenya and Uganda

A dissemination forum was convened by The Learning and Action Alliance for Girls’ Agency (LAAGA) on  January 24th, 2024, in Nairobi, Kenya, under the theme "Centering Young People as Agents of Change: Lessons from Kenya and Uganda." This event, co-organized by Brookings Center for Universal Education and LAAGA members Christine Apiot Okudi, Joyce Kinyanjui, and Dr. Mary Otieno, brought together representatives from the civil society organisations, including Jaslika, to examine the  research findings on girls’ agency in the Karamojong cluster, located alongside  the Kenya-Uganda border.
