Helping each other can make world better

Pastoralist Girls Initiative (PGI) is an indigenous, Garissa based Non-Governmental Organization that was registered in 2008. PGI works to enhance the capacity of women and girls from ASAL communities to develop resilience, economic growth and adaptation to climate change. In doing so we work with a wide range  of stakeholders interested in the EMPOWERMENT of women and girls from the pastoralist communities to achieve their potential and improve the quality of their lives as individuals and collectively that of the entire community.

PGI works largely focuses on girls and women to develop their leadership skills and empower them to take lead in addressing challenges that affect their development including early marriages, female genital mutilation, and education amongst others. It supports women to initiate income-generating activities as well as develop resilient skills to cope with ever changing environmental factors. PGI’s vision is: ‘Empowered ASAL communities realizing their fullest potential and leading dignified human lives’. Its mission is: ‘To promote sustainable development by enhancing the capacities of ASAL communities through integrated development approaches’. The strapline is enabling prosperous futures.

Women themselves have the right to live in dignity, in freedom from want and freedom from fear.
