What does it mean to dream of education, meaningful work, independence and belonging when your reality is shaped by disability, poverty and life in an informal settlement? In this episode of Hideout Podcast, inspired by this year's International Youth Day theme: Different Contexts, Common Aspirations, we sit down with Wote kwa Wote CBO to explore the aspirations, experiences and possibilities of young persons with disabilities, particularly those living in communities like Dandora. This episode is in partnership with Positive Young Women Voices under the Sauti Moja Alliance. More importantly this is a conversation about dreams not limitations. About recognizing while our circumstances may differ, our hopes for dignity, opportunity, independence and belonging can be remarkably similar. Enjoy!!

The episode highlights the realities many girls and marginalized communities still face, while also imagining a future where periods are met with care, inclusion and understanding instead of shame and stigma. This is a conversation about people, empathy and the kind of world we choose to build together.

Policies often look progressive on paper, but what happens when implementation falls short? Hideout podcast in partnership with Y+ Global had a sit down with young people to share how decisions made at the top connect or fail to connect with everyday struggles in their communities. We ask: what does it take to move from promises to practice and how can lived experiences be woven into policymaking? This conversation sheds light on why policies are only as good as their implementation and how bridging the gap between leaders and young people requires trust, accountability and genuine co-creation.
