The Ubuntu-Afya Kiosk Network: Community Co-Ownership for Quality Care in Rural Kenya

We are working to scale integrated Reproductive Maternal Newborn and Child Health (RMNCH) and Non-Communicable Disease (NCD) services for under-served rural communities where the burden is under-estimated and outcomes are poor. Ubuntu-Afya Medical Centres are unique in their kiosk co-ownership model with target communities and in the incorporation of complementary financial service enterprises, which cross-subsidize the cost of health service. Supplemental COVID-19 funding is supporting training for kiosk network health personnel on care and prevention of COVID-19 cases, PPE for kiosk network health personnel and affiliated community health workers, and dissemination of COVID-19 information to catchment communities via community health workers.
