Tenacious Development Initiative

We cherish mothers for the care and ❤️

At Tenacious Development Initiative, we believe every woman and girl deserves dignity, opportunity, and a voice.

International Women’s Day 2026, we stand for Rights, Justice, and Action for every woman and girl. Empowered women build strong families, resilient communities, and a just society. Let us move beyond words and take bold action to ensure every woman and girl lives with dignity, equality, and opportunity. ”

Yesterday,Youth Alive Kenya hosted the National convening of the Employers' Community of Practice under the Time to Care Project. Employers from Nairobi, Kiambu, Mombasa, and Nakuru came together with domestic workers’ representatives, legal experts, and care sector partners to reflect on progress, share lessons, and strengthen accountability in advancing decent domestic work.

This national convening reaffirmed a powerful truth: employers are not just private actors, they are key partners in shaping fair, lawful, and dignified working conditions in the care economy.
With a shared resolution and renewed commitment to rights protection and responsible employment practices, we move forward united in making care justice a lived reality in Kenyan households and communities.
