Trust for Indigenous Culture and Health (TICAH) is a feminist organization creating positive links between health, culture, traditional medicine, sexuality, gender, food, and art activism. We do this by:
Listening and Co-creation -We start by listening to communities’ stories, cultures, challenges, opportunities, adaptations, and more. Through listening and discussion, we co-create programs finding progressive ways to address Kenya’s most pressing issues.
Safe Spaces and values clarification - We create safe spaces for people to openly share their views, values, challenges and experiences without judgment or repercussions. In these spaces, we also clarify values that we individually or collectively have about certain issues or ideas. By clarifying values, we establish areas where we connect and where we need to find mutual understanding.
Facilitation and Training of trainers -We are facilitators supporting communities to organize themselves, find local solutions to challenges, advocate for change and protect one another. We have developed several tools to support conversations and learning in workshops. We provide these materials to local trainers and facilitators to share within their communities after they are trained on how to use them.
Advocacy and Celebration -We raise our voices to advocate for better laws, policies and practices to protect rights, access to holistic health services, freedom of expression, indigenous culture, sexuality and reproductive health. We celebrate the beauty and diversity of ideas, ethnicities, religions, sexuality, music, art, genders, indigenous cultures, and traditions as expressions of a healthy society.
