In partnership with local community groups, the government has launched a targeted initiative to economically empower women—especially widows—who often face financial and social struggles after losing their spouses. In Marsabit County, women have received business training and financial aid to help them start and grow sustainable ventures, enabling them to support their families and live with dignity.
Local leaders emphasized the persistent challenges widows face, calling for continued community support and inclusive policies. In a related development, authorities are being urged to prioritize the fight against gender-based violence (GBV), including the establishment of a dedicated police unit funded through the national budget.
