Jua Hope is a transformative initiative nestled in Kenya’s Kuria region, dedicated to empowering women and fostering community development.
Our innovative social restaurant and shelter serve as pillars of change, providing economic opportunities for women, safe spaces, and educational resources. With a commitment to sustainability and social entrepreneurship, we’re illuminating pathways to a brighter, more inclusive future for all.
The shelter
The shelter
The preliminary design, meticulously crafted by students of the esteemed Jomo Kenyatta University in Nairobi, embodies our commitment to sustainability. Drawing inspiration from Kurian art and eco-friendly architecture, and driven by the imperative of community development, the students meticulously ensured that every facet of our social restaurant and shelter harmonizes with the environment.
Ending FGM and gender-based violence
Ending FGM and gender-based violence
Women’s rights in Kenya were strengthened by a new constitution in 2010. Nevertheless, domestic violence, genital mutilation and even forced marriages unfortunately still take place in the Kuria society in Migori County.
There is a lack of information and ways out for girls and women. The Jua Hope project targets the basic right of bodily integrity, based on a community approach. It aims at building a women’s shelter that is not only a refuge for girls and women in danger but also a meeting point for community discussions. It further aims to strengthen women empowerment by financial independence.
Join us today as we break through harmful traditions and pave the way for a brighter, more equitable future.
