Our aim at TICAH is to promote health and healing by enhancing the positive links between health and cultural knowledge, values, ritual, and expression.
"Shine your light, everyone has a light."
This belief shapes everything we do. Every person, community, and tradition we work with, it carries knowledge and value worth celebrating. Everyone has a light. Our work is making space for it to shine.
Young mothers reported greater confidence on their Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights.
Young women who started as learners and grew into advocates for themselves.
When young women are supported, they speak up. That is the work we do at TICAH.

Happening at KEMRI! Commemorating African Traditional Medicine Day.
We only have one health care system in our country! We must integrate the two health care systems.

That is how poet Ngwatilo Mawiyoo described her experience at Rika25: Generations & Memories.

AGYW are not just beneficiaries. We are rights-holders and decision-makers.
Our participation is not a favour. It's a right.

After a year of Plant Talks, we celebrated our graduates and the knowledge they’ve gained about medicinal plants and indigenous health practices. “Plant Talks has taught me more than I will ever know, and for that I am grateful.”
Congratulations!

We centre the voices that are often left out. We name injustice, even when it's uncomfortable. Truth-telling is not the same as being provocative. It's a commitment. To integrity. To the communities we work with.
The finest artists don't simply create.
They invite us into a conversation where every viewer discovers a different story. - Prof. Ntarangwi

Bodily autonomy cannot be protected in isolation.
Last week, we convened leaders across SRHR, women’s rights, democracy, governance and research to discuss how we break silos and build stronger alliances for rights, justice and freedom.
At #ARJC2026, our booth became a space for stories, questions and honest conversations about health, culture, care and freedom. Thank you to everyone who stopped by and reminded us that some of the most meaningful moments are created together.

The Swedish Film Series in Kenya is now on! 🇸🇪🎬
It was a pleasure to welcome guests from across Kenya's creative, academic and professional communities to the Residence for the launch of the series and the screening of The Dance Club by Lisa Langseth.
The discussion that followed was just as meaningful as the film itself.
Thank you to our panellists and to everyone who joined. This is the power of good film – creating space for connection, reflection and conversation. More to come!

Centering Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights in governance means moving beyond seeing it as a health-sector responsibility.
It requires having it in public participation, budgeting, oversight and accountability so that citizens especially young people and women have a voice in the decisions that affect their health and rights.
