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.

World Malaria Day 2022 | Harnessing Innovation To Reduce The Malaria Disease Burden And Save Lives.

World Malaria Day (WMD) is an international observance commemorated every year on the 25th of April. It is a day set aside to recognize the global efforts in combating Malaria. WMD, first observed in 2008, evolved out of Africa Malaria Day, which had been observed annually since 2001, when African Leaders meeting under the auspices of the African Union signed the Abuja Declaration, committing to step-up efforts in fighting and eradicating Malaria in Africa. The theme for World Malaria Day 2022 is to harness innovation to reduce the malaria disease burden and save lives.
