Voices from the Mine: Women Shaping County Budgets

This video highlights the journey of women miners in Taita Taveta County as they move from exclusion to influence. Despite mining being central to local economies, women have long been sidelined from decision-making and lacked basic protections. Through the Power of Voices Partnerships (PVP) project, implemented by the Institute of Public Finance (IPF) Kenya, women were equipped with skills in budget analysis, advocacy and public participation. The documentary captures a milestone moment where women miners successfully engaged county leaders, contributing to an increase in the mining directorate’s budget. While challenges remain, the women now participate with confidence, knowledge and a collective voice. This is a story of women shaping county budgets and the future of their communities.
