STACC supports the BION project in Kajiado County, southern Kenya, to relieve Maasai children from malaria and diarrhoeal disease. The focus of the project is on distribution of insecticide-treated bednets; better nutrition; safe water; and improved personal hygiene education.

BION in Kenya is now tackling Female Genital Mutilation.

FGM is a worldwide problem. Kenya has declared FGM to be illegal but it remains a cultural norm in many areas. Following discussions with BION, STACC has funded training on tackling FGM for BION staff organised with the help of the Qabale foundation. We have now also funded the first round of work in Kadiajo County which is reported to have been well received. This will require a continuing effort to change entrenched, long held attitudes and will benefit young women.
