The Documentary Podcast - Behind Closed Doors: Solutions to Domestic Abuse in Kenya

Download Behind Closed Doors: Solutions to Domestic Abuse in Kenya

Unity is a village without men set up by Samburu women in response to domestic abuse.

Claire Bolderson reports from three different countries: Peru, Indonesia and Kenya. The issue that unites them all is domestic violence.
