JFIF ,, Exif MM * J (
Clarice Akinyi, 35, washes clothes in Mathare Ward, Mashimoni Village, Nairobi, Kenya. She is a domestic worker by trade.
Clarice says she is a domestic worker by profession. She is passionate about it and it is part of who she is. She was, however, frustrated and angered by the lack of respect by employers for ‘maids’ and the way they are treated but had no idea how to challenge things. Being asked to do extra duties without payment, working longer hours and coping with abuse and harassment are everyday occurrences for domestic workers like Clarice.
When she joined Oxfam’s Wezesha Jamii project in early 2016 she learnt many skills to help her fight for her rights and provide more for her two children. She also felt that she must take the initiative to help others in her community. Clarice is a group leader for the M-Power Women’s Group that was started as part of the Wezesha Jamii project. The women are working effectively together to help each other with many problems and to improve things for themselves and their community.
When a new water tank was installed in her community she and other group members successfully negotiated with key stakeholders for it to be accessed using an ATM payment system which means people can get clean, safe water for a low price. Recently the tank went missing during a cholera outbreak and Clarice knew from her trainings who to immediately approach to lobby for a new tank which was installed within days.
