On Friday 10th March, 2017 Kenya Human Rights Commission, The National Women Steering Committee and CREAW  launched the Ni Mama movement. This was the largest convention of women political leaders ever held in Kenya. The convention brought together over 3,500 women leaders from all over Kenya and from different political parties to make a declaration on Women Leadership and to claim power. The women vowed to stand together and vote for women regardless of party affiliations. The women presented a policy document that set part of their demands for the government. Key among this demands was the need to have 50-50 gender representation in all party positions. #Nimama2017
