Kenya Podcast Series Episode 5: Women’s Empowerment Link

In this episode of the Hali Hewa Podcast, our guest, Gertrude Tala from the Women Empowerment Link (WEL), takes us through the vital role of women in leading climate justice. WEL’s work focuses on empowering women and advancing gender justice within the Voices for Just Climate Action programme, ensuring that women’s voices are central to climate solutions. Gertrude shares how climate change is disproportionately affecting women and girls in vulnerable communities, and the ways WEL is building resilience, creating opportunities, and inspiring leadership among women and youth. We hear powerful stories from the ground, learn how collaboration with VCA partners is amplifying impact, and discuss the future of gender-responsive climate action in Kenya.
