On 12th to 17th August 2024, Worthy Vision through their education program started along week community and security actors’ engagement meetings in order to promote safety and prioritization of the non-local teachers’ security across six target locations of Konton, Khorof-harar, Gerile Kenya and Somalia and Diff Kenya and Somalia. The main purpose of this engagement meetings was to foster close collaboration and seamless communication between security personnel and community members in order to promote teacher security at the cross-border areas with the goal of sustaining the progress so far achieved in overcoming the long decade of insecurity incidences. This could be sustained by robust linkage between security officers and community members in order to closely coordinate to promote teacher security.

The engagements meetings brought together different stakeholders from diverse sectors including the security team, Nyumba Kumi chairpersons, religious leaders, women leaders, peace elders, teachers, youth influencers, chiefs and school boards who were brought onboard in order to draw strategies for enhancing the security of cross-border teachers in all the border areas.
