Position Paper From The Kenya Civil Society Organizations (CSOs) | Domestic Resource  For Sustainable Health Financing

Civil Society Organizations (CSOs) have been instrumental in advocating for increased financing towards health in Kenya, playing a crucial role in shaping policies, monitoring their implementation, and providing evidence-based recommendations for improving health outcomes. CSOs have championed allocating, prioritising, and utilising resources for essential health programs, ranging from community health to primary healthcare, maternal and child health, TB, HIV/AIDS, and malaria. Through their efforts, CSOs have facilitated public participation, conducted research, monitored and evaluated health programs, and promoted social accountability, resulting in more effective utilisation of health resources.
