Global Give Back Circle partnered with Mastercard Foundation on a pilot program to inform the scale-up of HER Lab in rural Kenya. Participants were young women from West Pokot, most between ages 15 and 35, who face barriers in education and work. Through open-ended surveys and guided journalizing—a facilitated, guided writing practice where participants reflect on their experiences, set goals, and work through challenges—participants were asked to define dignity and fulfillment in their own words, describe what they are still missing, and explain what they need from work in order to feel valued.
Learning Question
How do marginalized, young women in rural Kenya define dignity, fulfillment, and respect, and how do these definitions manifest in their professional and personal goals?
