Our Journey

Explore the story of how MenVolved Initiative became a force for gender justice and positive change.

Formerly Involvemen Kenya, MenVolved Initiative was founded in 2017 in response to growing concerns about gender inequality, toxic masculinity, and the marginalization of women, girls, and vulnerable youth in our communities.

Since then, we have:

  • Empowered over 5,000 young people through gender equality workshops and mentorship programs.
  • Partnered with 30+ organizations to amplify advocacy campaigns on positive masculinity and gender justice.
  • Influenced policy discussions around youth development, SRHR, and GBV prevention at both local and national levels.

From a small grassroots movement, MenVolved has grown into a trusted voice in promoting gender justice across Kenya and beyond.

We remain committed to building a future where every individual, regardless of gender, can thrive in a safe, inclusive, and empowering society.
