TeenSeed Africa is a local community-based organization based in Kayole and Kiambiu area of Nairobi County.
The Executive Director TeenSeed Africa, Ms. Winnie Obure says TeenSeed Africa’s main program’s focus is on survivors of SGBV – women and teens. Further, they also work around the prevention of teenage pregnancies through Sexual and Reproductive Health Rights (SRHR), training community members to become gender equality champions and economically empowering the survivors of SGBV through the provision of ‘seed grants.’ Teen Seed Africa also upholds the education of young mothers by ensuring that they go back to school after delivery. The organization is also involved in the male engagement program where they hold discussions with men as a way of building a community of male champions against SGBV. Teen Seed also operates a safe shelter that provides a safe space for survivors of SGBV.
CCGD is in the process of exploring ways of working in partnership with Teen Seed to enhance youth lead coalitions against SGBV.
