At #KASH2026, we showcased how community-led innovation is driving #UHC in @HomaBayCountyKE

Our #CitDUit study proves that when CHPs have tools like Community Household Antenatal Record Tracker #CHART and a voice in Work Improvement Teams, maternal health quality improves.

As global health financing shifts, bold local innovation matters. @LVCTKe joins leaders at a panel by @frkenya_chamber on sustaining healthcare amid declining aid. Dr Cleophas Ondieki shares insights on resilient, people-centred systems. #LVCTHealth #AfricaHealthHub

Through @SHINENIHR project, we are actively researching these challenges and co-creating sustainable solutions to support CHP mental wellbeing and agency. Our insights have been shared through poster presentations and panel discussions at #KASHConference

'Community health reforms in Kenya empower Community Health Promoters (CHPs) as frontline heroes, but unintended consequences like heavy workloads, inadequate support & compensation can take a serious toll on their mental health & wellbeing.' Faith Munyao — Researcher @LVCTKe

[Lvcthealth @LVCTKe]

'As part of our SHINE project, body mapping highlights Community Health Promoters’ lived experiences—revealing mental, physical, and systemic stressors often missed by surveys. CHPs must be co-authors, not just subjects, of health system reforms.' Victoria. A —Researcher @LVCTKe

[Lvcthealth @LVCTKe]

'Mental health is still a difficult conversation in Kenya. We’re creating stigma-free spaces where CHPs, using WHO-guided approaches, support each other, seek help without fear, and engage in compassionate supervision.' Dr. Mulupi- Head, Research Implementation @LVCTKe

Today's discussions are centered on a critical national priority: Accelerating Kenya's Local Vaccine Manufacturing to strengthen health security.

Under #LEARNProject, teachers report improved mental wellbeing through stress management and self-care sessions. Better emotional regulation has strengthened teacher-learner relationships and reduced reactive classroom responses. #TeacherWellbeing #PositiveDiscipline #SafeSchools

[Lvcthealth @LVCTKe]

Speaking at the #LEARN Kiambu meeting, Madam Emily Nyaga noted that violence against children in schools is widespread and often unreported—making the #LEARNProject timely. #SafeSchools #PositiveDiscipline

[Lvcthealth @LVCTKe]

Teachers implementing #LEARNProject say shifting from corporal punishment to #PositiveDiscipline was challenging due to entrenched practices, but the cane has been abandoned, with alternative approaches now used across schools. #SafeSchools #EndCorporalPunishment #ChildProtection
