Brief on the Community Advocacy and Awareness Trust-CRAWN TRUST

The Community Advocacy and Awareness Trust-CRAWN Trust is a non-profit organisation registered as a Trust Corporation. CRAWN Trust was established with the aim of impacting lives and transforming communities by promoting citizen’s awareness on their rights and responsibilities and working with them to towards eliminating gender-based discrimination in the social, political and economic spheres.

CRAWN Trust’s vision is a Kenya where citizens enjoy their full social, economic, and political rights as enshrined in the Kenyan Constitution and in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights while the organization’s mission is to foster a values-led leadership and Governance that upholds all democratic values and the full enjoyment of social, economic, and political rights as enshrined in the Kenyan Constitution.

CRAWN Trust’s theory of change (TOC) is based on sustainable development being achieved through values driven Governance and transformative leadership. When development is values driven and inclusive then communities thrive.
