Since 2003, the Ford Foundation office in Nairobi has supported over 20 sexuality
grantees to give visibility, depth and legitimacy to the field of sexuality. Through this
support, grantees have promoted informed dialogue and open discussions around
sexuality and contributed to positive changes in the emerging field of sexuality by creating
mechanisms for learning at the regional level. The grantees have sought to change public
discourse on gender and sexuality and to create a more constructive and enabling policy
environment in the field of sexual health and rights.
