At WADU, we believe that sustainable change begins with the people. Our approach is community-driven, participatory and inclusive. We collaborate with local leaders, youth, women and development partners to build informed, healthy resilient communities.

Our Programs
All our programs are designed to be inclusive, community-driven, and sustainable, ensuring that women and girls voices are not only heard but lead the way in creating change.
Our Approach
At WADU Kenya, our approach is rooted in empowerment, and evidence-based solutions. We work hand-in-hand with local communities to understand their needs, co-create programs, and build long-term capacity.
Inclusivity
We actively involve people from all backgrounds of the community. Regardless of ability, ethnicity, age, or socioeconomic status in identifying problems and coming up with solutions.
Community-driven
We listen first. Every project begins with conversations—with families, local leaders, and stakeholders—to ensure our solutions are grounded in the reality of those we serve.
Collaboration
We partner with women, adolescent, grassroots organizations, governments, and donors to amplify impact. We don’t deliver promises—we co-create change.
Sustainability
Our programs aim to create systemic change by investing in education, local leadership, and infrastructure that endure beyond our involvement.
