We certainly need to keep this in mind. 🏥 Achieving better #health systems starts with strengthening local communities. In Kisumu, Siaya, Nandi, and Kilifi counties, we partnered with local changemakers to collect citizen-generated #healthdata, revealing powerful stories of patient experiences and the state of healthcare facilities in these regions. Through this collaboration, we strengthened #changemakers' skills in data collection and analysis, enabling them to champion their communities’ needs and advocate for policies rooted in real-world evidence. By highlighting these local realities, we are helping to pave the way for policies that truly transform lives. ✨ Read more on: ✅Kisumu and Siaya County ➡️ https://lnkd.in/dsq2iwH3 ✅Kilifi County ➡️ https://lnkd.in/eUZuKrZS ✅Nandi County ➡️ https://lnkd.in/eSDAaH2e #ActiveCitizenship #HealthCareData

The potential for transformation in rural Kenya is enormous, but it requires collective effort. By equipping community-based organisations (CBOs) and local #changemakers with the resources and support they need, we can accelerate meaningful social progress. ➡️ From spending time in these communities and learning from them, we know that those who live and work within these communities understand their needs best. By standing behind these changemakers, we are working towards a future where progress is inclusive and reaches everyone, #LeavingNoOneBehind.

Data governance is fundamentally about people. It strengthens citizens with systems that build trust, protect rights, and unlock potential. By turning #data into actionable tools, it drives smarter policies, better healthcare, and inclusive economic growth for all. We are inspired by this vision in our work with our different stakeholders, and are committed to building frameworks that not only protect the rights of citizens, but also amplify their voices and fuel innovation across #Africa. We believe that a future shaped by responsible, #inclusive data governance is within reach, and it’s a future where Africa leads the way. This is just the begining: https://lnkd.in/dfQyrbyZ #DataGovernance

This week, we had the privilege of hosting a #DataProtection Capacity Building workshop in Kilifi County, training government officials on #data protection and impact assessment. This workshop was a vital step in strengthening Kilifi’s data governance, ensuring that public participation becomes a cornerstone of decision-making. We’re proud to see Kilifi County embracing this journey toward stronger #DataProtection practices. This builds on the success of similar work in Nandi County, where transformative data handling approaches are already making a difference!

The Open Institute reposted this
We are happy to have hosted the second edition of the Kilifi Intergenerational Climate Change Dialogue. This local dialogue, organized by our #Changemakers, brought together community members of all walks of life including students, government representatives and climate advocates to discuss pressing climate issues affecting our communities and localise global climate conversations. The main topics of the day were waste management in Kilifi County, climate mobility, and climate governance. These discussions focused on solutions tailored to our unique local needs. We love the idea of localizing global climate concepts because it empowers communities to actively contribute to their solutions. This approach ensures progress that is sustainable and rooted in the realities of those most affected. Local changemakers are at the heart of driving these solutions and they deserve more support to drive sustainable development in their communities.#KICCD02 #MaonoSpace.The Open Institute
