KEWOTA SHAPING EDUCATION THROUGH WOMEN TEACHERS’ WELFARE

Teachers’ well-being is crucial for the delivery of quality education. While numerous organizations in Kenya focus on education management and career development for teachers, one stands out by taking a unique approach— the Kenya Women Teachers Association (KEWOTA). Unlike others, KEWOTA prioritizes the personal welfare of women teachers, recognizing it as the cornerstone for addressing broader challenges in the education sector.

Women teachers, in particular, face distinct challenges related to personal welfare. Many grapple with issues silently, leading to reduced productivity, warning letters, or even interdictions. Some of these teachers are widowed breadwinners who face barriers not only in the classroom but also at home. KEWOTA understands these challenges intimately, as it is led by women who have been teachers in Kenya for decades.

KEWOTA serves as a safe haven for women teachers, offering more than just development opportunities. The organization provides tailored assistance to meet individual needs. Whether it’s mental health and depression, maternal health, reproductive health, fertility matters, gender-based violence, or career stagnation, KEWOTA’s network of trained professionals is ready to offer support.

Getting assistance through KEWOTA is a straightforward process. Women teachers can reach out via a confidential email to support@kewota.co.ke, info@kewota.co.ke, or contact 0784321321 for special assistance. The organization’s leaders, experienced in women’s support and empowerment, have already positively impacted numerous women teachers across the nation.

As a woman teacher, you don’t have to face challenges alone. KEWOTA stands as a beacon of support, demonstrating that it is not just an organization for women teachers but a sisterhood — ‘My Sister’s Keeper.’ By addressing personal welfare, KEWOTA empowers women educators, ensuring they can continue to shape minds and contribute to the advancement of education in Kenya.
