The Restorers (Kenyan group)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Restorers is a group of six Kenyan activists, Dorcas Owinoh,[1] Stacy Owino, Cynthia Otieno, Purity Achieng, Macrine Atieno and Ivy Akinyi. They are using technology to fight female genital mutilation (FGM). These activists from Kisumu were brought together by their mentor Dorcas Owinoh to develop an application called i-Cut which helps FGM victims. They are known to have been the only Africans that participated in the 2017 Technovation Challenge in Silicon Valley.[2][3]
