Gender Development Coordinator Job in Kibera, Nairobi, Kenya - Shining Hope for Communities

Shining Hope for Communities has developed an innovative, community-driven model to combat inter-generational cycles of poverty and gender inequality in Nairobi’s Kibera slum. We link free schools for girls to accessible social services for all.
