Following the momentous launch of the community health program, we are co-financing with Kenya’s Isiolo County government, the first 340 CHWs who graduated are now actively providing primary health services to 14,500 households throughout Isiolo, Garbatulla and Merti sub-counties. In October, we began training the remaining 380 CHWs in the county, which will bring the total number of households directly benefiting to approximately 58,000.
We facilitated a critical milestone in August when we successfully pushed community-level data from our Smart Health app into the government’s DHIS2 system. This is a key step in enabling the government’s effective independent analysis of community-level health indicators, which is essential for budgeting and operationalizing broader government-led efforts.
