@simona.ghizzoni posting from Kenya. Guys I’m happy to introduce you Faith, our guide in the Masai area. Faith is, of course, masai and underwent #FGM in her childhood. She’s now an educator and a women’s right warrior:) #uncutproject #journalismgrants
Hi everyone, here’s @simona.ghizzoni posting from Kenya. I’m back to some small village, in a very modest accomodation, but I have an internet connection now :) So, it’s time to say goodbye to Kenya and start the journey to Ethiopia…!! In the pic, the jacaranda tree, no doubt my favorite kenyan tree. #uncutproject #journalismgrants #breathing
Day 5. @simona.ghizzoni posting from kenya. A masai former circumciser, now advocating against #FGM. Despite the troubled story she was telling us, being photographed made her laugh :) #uncutproject #journalismgrants #kenya
Hi everyone, this is @simona.ghizzoni posting from kenya on the 5th days. Guys here it’s becoming really hard to post, we are staying in a small settlement in Kajado county and we move every day to the masai community who lives in a very remote area. So, here again we are visiting a rescue centre …

Day 3. @simona.ghizzoni posting from Kenya. So…a bit of relief in the wonderful nature. This part of Kenya, close to Uganda border is green and blossoming. This is the road I take every morning to reach the Kongelai community. :) #kenya #uncutproject #journalismgrants @ezuccala

Day 2. Sadly…the dormitories in the rescue centre. The rescuers are mostly volunteers so the accomodation is really poor. Still, the girls are safe and they’re studying, so there are better chances for their future. @simona.ghizzoni posting from Kenya. West Pokot. #uncutproject #journalismgrants @ezuccala
