Kenya's minibuses -- known as "matatus" -- offer a convenient, affordable and colorful way for people to get around. But they also pose safety risks and accessibility issues for many of their passengers, especially women. Bringing a feminist perspective, activist and TED Fellow Naomi Mwaura calls for a revolution in public transportation by making routes transparent, protecting passengers from harassment and paving a career path for women in the industry.

A feminist-led initiative reimagines Kenya's matatus, focusing on safer, inclusive public transport through training and policy.

Empowering women in the transport industry catalyzes change, fostering a safer, more inclusive commuting experience for all.
