  • Summary 2021 1
    Summary 2021 1 ROTARY FOUNDATION GLOBAL GRANT PROPOSAL “REDUCING GENDER-BASED VIOLENCE & ACHIEVING POSITIVE PEACE BY EMPOWERING WOMEN AFFECTED AND INFECTED WITH HIV IN THE SLUMS OF KISUMU, KENYA” SUMMARY Gender-based violence (GBV) is one of the most continuous violations of human rights across the globe. According to the World Health Organization, a high prevalence of violence is associated with higher rates of HIV infection among marginalized populations. Evidence shows that living with HIV constitutes a pronounced risk factor for experiencing GBV. 1/ Many women in Sub- Saharan Africa, like Kenya, are disproportionately affected by HIV. In 2016 alone, 34,000 adult women were infected with HIV, compared with 22,000 adult men. Kisumu contributed to 9.5% of the total number of people living with HIV in Kenya and is hence ranked the third-highest area throughout the entire nation of Kenya according to the National Aids Control Council of Kenya as of 2015. This prevalence is associated with high poverty levels that push people into commercial sex work and sex in exchange for a steady supply of fish, which is then used for trade. Continued engagement in such risky behaviors perpetuates poverty among children who are often left as orphans with the deadly menace of parents related to HIV/AIDS, which is highest along the Lake Victoria shores than in other parts of Kenya. In this region, people with HIV/AIDS, especially women and girls, have been sharply affected by the COVID-19 pandemic and its effects. While our project focuses on a specific target group, we believe that if anyone is disparaged, prospects for positive peace for a population are reduced.
