dc.description.abstract	This Isiolo County Gender Policy 2021-2025 seeks to ensure that both women and men in Isiolo County benefit equitably from the resources of the county. It aims at ensuring the attainment of gender equality in the development process by redressing the existing gender imbalances. It also provides for equal opportunities for women and men to actively participate and contribute to their fullest abilities and equitably benefit from County development. The development of this Policy has been necessitated by many challenges experienced by women, men, youth, boys, and girls in our County which include; increase in genderbased violence (FGM, Child Marriage, Child Labour, Wife battering, and beading) as well as drug abuse and trafficking, radicalization, and recruitment into terrorism; gender disparities in positions of decision making and economy; emerging health issues affecting mostly women among others.	en
