Street Children in Kenya
Tens of thousands of children in Kenya rely on the streets for their survival, due to poverty, family breakdown, or displacement from their homes. These street children are segregated and unable to benefit from social security programmes and frequently suffer from rights violations such as sexual abuse, exploitation and violence due to their status and lack of legal documents. Our goal is to provide street children a platform to voice their opinions and ensure Kenya's street children are protected and their rights are realised.
Our Projects in Kenya
Mombasa Education Project
This project bridges the gap in education access and outcomes for street-connected children in Mombasa, providing a model for inclusive education for the most marginalised and “difficult” children – children whose age or circumstances make traditional educational models unviable.
The Legal Atlas: Putting Street Children on the Map
Street children are one of the world’s most invisible populations, overlooked by governments, law and policymakers and many others in society. To address this, CSC and our partner Baker McKenzie created the Legal Atlas, to put information about laws affecting street children directly into their -and their advocates’ – hands.
