My project was about the use of Alternative Rites of Passage as a solution to end Female Genital Mutilation in West Pokot County. Recent research by World vision and the Kenya Education for Nomadic indicated that illiteracy is one of the key factors contributing to FGM in West Pokot County, with North and Central Pokot leading in those cases. Data shows that in Pokot north approximately 12,000 girls and boys do not attend school.
