This is so encouraging to read. It's a great example of Community Health Workers - here more accurately known as Community Health Promoters - working at a higher and more strategic level to engage with health-related issues as key participants.
It's also an example of an emerging model which when successfully developed will be of great value not only in Kenya, but beyond.
It reflects on the value of working at the top of the cliff, not only to help prevent illness, but to promote wider health and wellbeing, using the SDGs as a guide.
We will promote this emerging model in our programmes at Arukah Network
Best wishes
