About [Edit]
GROOTS Kenya is a network of grassroots women representing self-help groups and organizations across Kenya. Founded in 1995, today the network has more than 2000 women members from different women's organizations throughout Kenya.
The network's objective is to "ensure that grassroots women are masters of their own destiny through their direct participation in decision making processes." Thus GROOTS Kenya's goal is to strengthen the role of grassroots women in community development by serving as a platform for grassroots women's groups and individuals to: come together, to share their ideas/experiences, to network and to find avenues to directly participate in decision making, planning, and implementation of issues that affect them.
GROOTS Kenya accomplishes their goals through five main program areas:
- Peer Learning And Exchanges
- "Amplify The Grassroot Women's Voice"
- Physical Space For Grassroots Women
- HIV-AIDS And Reproductive Health
- Village Banking
