Samantha
Munang'andu

Gender Specialist /Project Coordinator

I am a creative and innovative professional passionate about fostering sustainable development and environmental solutions. With extensive experience working with diverse communities and cultures, I specialize in providing training sessions, technical support, and capacity-building in the environmental sector and am a firm believer of the decolonized feminist principles. 

My work focuses on integrating gender-balanced strategies into environmental initiatives, ensuring gender issues are recognised and actively addressed.  I support marginalized groups realise the power within them and driving their own development in their personal and collective life. I am a strong advocate for community ownership and management of environmental resources, empowering communities to drive their own futures safely and free from gender-based violence (GBV). Additionally, I support safeguarding efforts and promote self-care for women and communities, believing that sustainable solutions are rooted in inclusive and resilient communities
