Our programs focus on the following outcomes: rehabilitation and reintegration economic empowerment, access to justice, education empowerment and climate change and safe environment. The programs are all connected and essential to ending the cycle of poverty.
With a regional fertility rate of 5.1, compared to a global average of 2.4, and a 2030 projected

opportunities for all children in order to meet the growing demand in sub-Saharan Africa.
The Kenya Children’s Legal Aid Work (KCLAW) is a specific program by Action for Children in Conflict that seeks to promote access to justice, strengthen the rule of law, promote human rights and significantly reduce all forms of violence in the society.
