CHPs are doing tremendous work to create demand for ANC service delivery in the community. WITs ensure data-driven interventions for ANC. To achieve quality respectful MCH health, the missing piece is strengthening the health systems infrastructure

#HealthSystem preparedness should integrate #surveillance and #CommunityEngagement. Researchers should be prepared for shocks, stressors and emergencies. Interesting discussions at the Health system resilience Symposium @KEMRI_Kenya @LSTMnews @MiriamTaegtmeye

We're delighted to have our #CommunityHealth & #PublicHealth leads from Kenya 🇰🇪 alongside their Liverpool counterparts take part in an innovative mutual exchange programme to learn and be inspired by each other's work #ChangeMakers
@LSTMnews @DPH_MAshton @lilianotiso
ALT The exchange programme aims to inspire change-maker pairs through developing a deeper understanding of each other’s contexts; build teams’ capacity to develop monitor, cost and support innovative local community health interventions; and inform respective health workforce strategies in primary care and community health. The change-maker pairs will also lay the foundations for a longer-term relationship between local governments in Kenya and England, triggering innovative ways of working and role-modelling equitable health partnerships
