Peninah “Nemo” Kimiri
GBV Technical Advisor (MA in Psychology)
Nemo is a consummate gender professional with over 6 years of experience in prevention and response to Gender-Based Violence (GBV) in 13 countries across Sub Saharan Africa and Southeast Asia. Survivors and stakeholders depend on her to deliver expert and practical implementation strategies on mitigating GBV. A significant aspect of her work has entailed supporting and complementing existing structures on national, regional and global levels, specifically: gender and GBV mainstreaming, case management, capacity building, social behaviour change communication (SBCC), and institutional strengthening. This experience paired with her strong communication skills has been critical in advocating for access to health care and social services interventions for survivors, developing one-stop centers, contributing to relevant tools, guidelines, policies and bills affecting GBV and CSO shadow reporting on ACRWC, CEDAW, and UPR
