Gender injustice in Kenya does not exist in isolation. It intersects with poverty, class inequality, land dispossession, unemployment, disability, age, ethnicity, religion, and geographic marginalization. Women in informal settlements, rural villages, coastal communities, and pastoralist regions experience patriarchy differently, shaped by unequal access to resources, services, and political power. This curriculum responds to these realities. Its purpose is to support communities to analyze their own conditions, strengthen feminist leadership, and build practical strategies for social change. It recognizes that political education must be accessible, participatory, and rooted in lived experience.

The curriculum also responds to the need for a shared feminist language and framework within the SJM, while leaving space for diversity, debate, and local adaptation.
