Kataa Kutumika! Stand for Peace!

Critical Acclaim for a Crucial Message

They premiered the emotionally evocative film in two locations in the city of Nakuru, bringing together key representatives from the national and County governments, as well as the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission, who are responsible for overseeing electoral affairs in the country, and more than a hundred young people. As part of the events, the representatives and youth attendees had a candid conversation discussing youth grievances and how they can collaborate in furthering youth inclusion in policymaking.

One outcome was a request by the officials in attendance, that the premier be shown across Nakuru county to engage more young people.

And while doing so, it picked up such attention that it was nominated for, and went on to win, best short film in the ONIMI film awards – a community-based film appreciation society in Nakuru. The film was shared on their Facebook page to amplify its reach and impact among the wider community.
