As we close out Women’s Month, we’re reflecting on the importance of creating spaces where everyone can thrive—across all roles, at work and at home. This time, we spotlight a male perspective through our colleague Kevin Mwangi, Senior Energy Advisor for the Renewable Energy & Green Hydrogen Project at GIZ Kenya. Kevin shares how inclusive workplaces don’t just empower women: they create opportunities for young men and women alike. He also highlights how flexible work environments have enabled him to grow both professionally and personally, balancing his role as a caregiver and a parent. His story complements the one we shared earlier about Eve Murithi, a working mum, and serves as a powerful reminder: when organisations give people the space to thrive, everyone benefits.
