    Abstract/Overview

    The Kenya Community Health Strategy 2020 – 2025 (KCHS 2020 – 2025) was developed to build on the Community Health Strategy 2014 – 2019. The development of the KCHS 2020 – 2025 is based on the lessons learnt from the implementation of the Community Health Strategy 2014 – 2019 and findings of a situational analysis of community health in Kenya that was undertaken towards the end of the implementation on the Community Health Strategy 2014-2019. That situational analysis noted several aspects of community health systems that need to be strengthened and scaled to unlock the outsized potential of community health in Kenya. For instance, major gaps were identified in the distribution and coverage by the community health workforce across counties. Coverage ratios across the counties ranged from as low as 17% to as high as 90%, showing poor distribution of the workforce. Additionally, funding for community health was a key lesson gathered from the previous strategy. During the implementation, community health did not have an independent line in the budget for Ministry of Health. The KCHS 2020 – 2025 was developed through a multi-stakeholder and multi sectoral participatory process led by the Ministry of Health and in collaboration with County Governments, Civil Society, Development Partners, and other stakeholders. The strategy has been aligned to the Kenya Health Sector Strategic and Investment Plan July 2018–June 2023, the Kenya Health Policy among other guiding documents
