Echo Network Africa Foundation (ENAF) President/CEO, Dr. Jennifer Riria, joined women leaders for the launch of Kenyan Women for Peace (KWP) ahead of the 2027 General Elections. Delivering a message of unity, Dr. Riria reminded the assembly: “Sisterhood is global. If you are not at the table, no one will hear you.” She underscored that stability requires grassroots action under ENAF’s banner “Peace Starts with Me,” supported by ENAF’s Running to Win capacity-building programme and financial preparedness through the Democracy Trust Fund (DTF).

As KWP prepares a national Women’s Situation Room to mitigate electoral violence, Dr. Riria warned that Kenya could take 120 years to achieve gender parity without accelerated momentum. She urged leaders to ground their work in commitment, self-drive, resilience, and legacy.
