what we do
Church and Community Mobilization Process (CCMP) Training
In October 2023, we hosted our first cohort Church and Community Mobilization Process Training. The training was being offered to Community Leaders, Human Rights’ Defenders and Church pastors from Kawangware. The course covers nine pillars: Bible as a Resource, Relationship Building, Process not Product, Sustainability, Resource Mobilization, Holistic Human Transformation, Empowerment of the People. Reaching God-Given Potential and Changed-Changed Agents. Through Tearfund, we introduced ‘Advocacy’ as part of what the Class is to learn in effort of developing key advocates in the various social issues addressed by various Class members.
msingi talks
Msingi’s commitment to content creation and conversations for justice led us to create the Msingi Talks podcast that hosts and incubates justice and faith conversations. Our podcast was born in September 2017, and the stats show that we have an audience in over 67 countries with over 7600 plays, which shows that the hunger for the content we produce is present .
Msingi Talks is available on all major podcast streaming channels.
msingi study
This is a study that arose after we hosted the first online Msingi Talks. The goal is to nurture conversations that question injustice and those that interrogate unjust power structures and invoke the fire for participants to be agents of liberation.
Faith & Feminism: 100 Voices for Change Project
With support from Voice from 2022, Msingi was implementing a project titled “Feminism and Faith: 100 Voices for Change” in Western Kenya and Nairobi. The aim of the project was to challenge the cultures of silence within faith, investigate women’s multiple social-cultural identities and how those identities intersect or clash in the journey to freedom, self-realization, and the pursuit of leadership within faith communities.
We organized a two-day in-house conference in October 2023 where we were joined by academicians, theologians, faith leaders and feminists to create a platform for open dialogue, education, and action.
In an effort to project the voice of women, we came up with two murals in Kawangware (Nairobi region) and Vihiga (Western region). In addition, a faith and feminism curriculum (Empowering Voices) is in the process of being published.
