On 29th October 2025 in Nairobi, ORPP was part of stakeholder discussions in a Centre for Multiparty Democracy forum- Gender Shared Learning-a Mental Health Approach.
The forum comprised various discussants drawn from political management duty-bearing entities and mental health experts. It accorded stakeholders an avenue to apprise the state of affairs, share lived experiences, and devise strategies to mitigate and cope with mental health predicaments for women in various political spaces.
Leading the ORPP charge, Assistant Registrar of Political Parties CS Agatha Wahome shared ORPP’s contribution towards the attainment of gender equality in political parties and a raft of proposals to enhance inclusion in political parties and the electoral process, as borne by varied stakeholders.
Mental health experts and participants shared experiences bordering on mental health as well as reflections on psych-social support and other interventions to confront broader challenges of women’s participation.
The participation aligns with the ORPP agenda to promote inclusion and meaningful involvement of women and other special groupings in party leadership and other affairs of political parties.
