Our National Co-ordinator @Stephenshikoli1 highlights the power of Near-Point-of-Care Mini Dock technology at the #HealthSummitKE. By a simple tongue swab, this innovation bypasses sputum challenges to deliver fast, accurate screening in remote primary care facilities. #EndTB
Our TB Champions visited @NTLDKenya booth to explore the Mini Dock Near-Point-of-Care (NPoC) diagnostic tool. Decisive, rapid, decentralized diagnostics mean faster treatment and better outcomes for all. #HealthSummitKE
Two years of integrating mental health into primary care in Makadara Sub-County — now under external evaluation. We brought CSO partners, service users, and caregivers to the table to ask: what worked, what didn't, and what happens next. Thank you to everyone who showed up.
"Near Point-of-Care testing is a game changing innovation toward finding missing cases and ending TB."

When communities speak, policies get better and services get stronger.
Powerful message from Mercy Myla, Nairobi TB Champion. As #HealthSummitKE begins tomorrow, we are showing up to ensure people remain at the center of all health decisions.

Ending TB is not an individual responsibility. Let's come together and fight to end TB.
A call to action from Phyllis Njoki, Nairobi TB Champion as we head into #HealthSummitKE. Ending TB requires collective commitment and shared responsibility. @moh_kenya@ntldkenya
We cannot achieve health for all while TB continues to affect vulnerable communities.

A key milestone in strengthening TB and lung health in Kenya's correctional facilities.
Following a two-day consultative meeting, @KELINKenya, @PrisonsKe and @NTLDKenya developed a draft Kenya Prisons Service TB & Lung Health Policy. The policy will guide coordinated TB prevention, diagnosis, treatment and care, helping improve health outcomes for both incarcerated persons and prison staff.

📍 #AIDS2026@KELINKenya's @PesaOkania presented an abstract on "TRIPS Plus Provisions in Free Trade Agreements and their Impact on Access to Medicines in Kenya."
The research found that TRIPS Plus provisions—such as market exclusivity and patent linkage—can delay the entry of affordable generic medicines, increase treatment costs, weaken local pharmaceutical production, and limit access to life-saving medicines, particularly for people living with HIV and those affected by TB.
The study calls for stronger public health safeguards in trade negotiations, greater transparency, and full use of TRIPS flexibilities to protect Kenya's constitutional right to health and advance Universal Health Coverage.

Ending drug-resistant TB requires more than medicine. Kajiado County is strengthening community-led responses through TB Champions, improved diagnostics, stigma reduction, and stronger referral systems because communities are essential partners in ending TB.

The @KELINKenya delegation at #AIDS2026 participated in an insightful discussion, hosted in collaboration with @itpcmena, on affordability, access, and market justice in access to medicines.
A key takeaway from @PesaOkania: "Civil society and communities hold knowledge that governments may not. By working together and amplifying lived experiences, we can build stronger coalitions that drive equitable access to medicines."

There is no better way to close Q2 than being in a room dedicated to building community power. As an iMonitor ToT under @Amref_Kenya's CLM project, I see firsthand that communities aren’t just users of the health system, they are its strongest pillars. #CSSForum2026
Live from the National Community Systems Strengthening Forum hosted by @Amref_Kenya! 📍
Great to have our Communications Lead @IreneMbacha & @StopTBKe's @Carol_Mburu5 in attendance. Communities aren't just recipients of healthcare, they are the active catalysts. #EndTB
