Serene Haven, a safe place for teenage mothers in Kenya

Description

Nyeri (Kenya), Feb 23 (EFE/EPA).- (Camera: Daniel Irungu) It is recess and a group of girls make their way from the classroom to the dormitories, where pregnant students grab some respite while others nurse babies. Since January, the Serene Haven school in central Kenya has served as an oasis for teenage mothers of the so-called Covid generation.“Most of the girls we are getting are the ones who got pregnant during the Covid period, even those with small babies were conceived during Covid lockdowns,” Kelvin Ndegwa, who co-founded the school with his wife, Elizabeth Muriuki, tells Efe.
