Talitha Kum Kenya held an impactful and inspiring workshop at Our Lady Queen of Peace Catholic Church, South B, focused on creating awareness on human trafficking among youth refugees from the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), Rwanda and Burundi. The workshop brought together over 150 young people who were eager to learn, engage and become champions of safety and dignity within their communities.This important initiative was made possible through our partnership with Tushirikiane Africa Trust (TUSA) and the Missionary Sisters of Our Lady of Africa. Their continued support and dedication are helping transform the lives of vulnerable youth, equipping them with knowledge that protects and empowers.
Young refugees are among the most vulnerable to trafficking and exploitation, often facing language barriers and limited access to information that traffickers seek to exploit. By creating spaces for open dialogue and education, we help these young people recognize risks, protect themselves and support one another.This workshop marks another significant stride in Talitha Kum Kenya’s ongoing mission to shield vulnerable communities from the dangers of trafficking. The energy and enthusiasm displayed by the young participants reaffirm the power of early education and community-driven action in the fight against exploitation. As these young refugees return to their communities armed with knowledge and a renewed sense of purpose, they carry with them the potential to become powerful advocates for change, inspiring others to speak up, stay safe, and look out for one another.
