Country Programme Outputs Achievement (please complete for all your CP outputs) Reproductive Health and Rights Output 1: Maternal and newborn health services, including services to prevent and manage fistula, are available, especially for young people and vulnerable groups in selected districts. Indicators Baseline 2009 Target End-line data () Percent of sites offering Basic Emergency Obstetric Care 10% 70% 69% Migori 10% 62% 15% Naivasha 20% 60% 38% Kilifi Number of skilled community midwives recruited, 45 (15 per updated and trained district) Number of facilities upgraded to provide fistula services Number of obstetric fistula clients successfully operated Per cent of fistulae survivors re-integrated into community 50% of those operated 50% of those operated 39% (275 out of 705) Key Achievements The establishment and support to model health centers in the focal districts, the training of health service providers, the recruitment and training of community midwives and their provision of services within proximity of the community assisted in addressing issues of access to quality services. Access to services by young people was improved greatly in centers that were functional and linked to a health facility than the youth empowerment centers. The innovation around repair of obstetric fistula (OF) was lauded by the beneficiaries. Output 2: Increased gender-sensitive and culturally sensitive behaviour change interventions for maternal health, including family planning, fistula management, and services to prevent female genital mutilation/cutting Indicators Baseline 2009 Target End-line data Number of clients referred for OF repair by CBOs (MUMCOP,CDN) 1 Number of community health extension workers/community midwives providing FP information and services Number of IPs implementing BCC activities This number refers to clients referred (600) for repair and is part of the total repaired (705) and demonstrates the key role of the CBOs in client mobilization. 1 P a g e

2 Key Achievements The faith based organizations have a comparative advantage in mobilization of obstetric fistula clients, which was demonstrated by the number of clients repaired through their efforts. Revitalization of the family planning programme by the National Council for Population and Development has helped reposition family planning and with the concerted advocacy efforts, the uptake of family planning is bound to increase substantially Output 3: Increased availability of high quality services to prevent HIV and sexually transmitted infections, especially for women, young people and other vulnerable groups Indicator Number of health institutions (sites) providing Youth Friendly Services to prevent HIV and STIs Number of young people and persons Most at Risk (MARPS) (married/discordant couples/ CSWs, MSM receiving comprehensive info& services to prevent HIV&STI per year Baseline (2009) Target End line data None 4 (1 in each 4 (one in each focal focal districts but only 3 districts) fully functional) , ,312 Existence of a condom policy and strategy None Condom policy in place Condom policy is in place and operational Number of condoms distributed 4 million 16 million per year 152 million (20 million per month in 2011) Number of young people, persons most at risk (SW) ,847 receiving comprehensive HIV/STI services Number of Implementing Partners implementing Behaviour Change Communication strategies Key Achievements The programme focus on the provision of high quality services to prevent HIV and sexually transmitted infections, especially for women, young people and other vulnerable groups has been successful with targets often exceeded. The support to Sex Workers through business training and loans has been an effective strategy to influence behavior change. Condom programming in particular has benefited from direct procurement of commodities by UNFPA, helping to fill in gaps when necessary as well as the GOK commitment of resources to purchase and distribute condoms. The introduction of DICs in Kilifi under ICRH and FHOK in Nairobi has expanded access to a wider range of services to the extent that the target of 75,000 people to be reached has been exceeded by far.

8 Summary of National Progress The national population policy was adopted and there is sustained effort to integrate population issues and principles of sustainable development into the country s policies and programs. The other policy documents that were developed integrating Reproductive Health and Family Planning include: National RH Policy (2007) ARH&D policy (2003) and its Plan of Action ( ) The National Health Sector Strategic Plan II National Population policy for Sustainable development (2000), Population Policy for National Development (2012) National Health Policy (2012) UNFPA s Contributions Support for capacity building trainings, orientation and sensitization workshops on integration of PHE in development planning, support towards enhancing advocacy campaigns and sustaining dialogue among key stakeholders. UNFPA also supported activities aimed at strengthening programme coordination mechanism, monitoring and reporting. Outcome 2 Increased access to and utilization of quality maternal and newborn health services Maternal mortality ratio (deaths of women per 100,000) /09 N/A Births attended by skilled health personnel 44% 2008/09 N/A Caesarean sections as a proportion of all live births 6% 2008/09 N/A Will be available in KDHS 2014 Will be available in KDHS 2014 Will be available in KSPA 2015 Summary of National Progress National health priorities are outlined in the Kenya Health Policy framework (1994, ), the National Health Sector Strategic Plan (NHSSP II ( ) and HSSIP ( ). The review of the Road Map for accelerating the attainment of MDGs relating to maternal and newborn health has shown that Kenya is one of the countries that are not making progress in the reduction of MMR (WHO, 2012) 2. In response, the GOK is committed to providing quality care as well as increasing access to services to address MDG 5(a & b). The development of the National Guidelines for community midwifery (2006) within the 6 th CP and the decision to establish and equip model health centres in every constituency with the 7 th CP was in a bid to increase access to and increased utilization of quality health services. The recent announcement by the current government to waive maternity fees in GOK health facilities is likely to enhance utilization of skilled attendance at birth. UNFPA s Contributions The programme supported the establishment of 4 model health centres. The Country Programme targets for increasing the proportion of sites offering Basic Emergency Obstetric Care (BEOC) were district specific. For example available data shows that for Migori district, there was a steady increase in the proportion of facilities offering BEOC from a baseline of 10% in 2009 to 24% (2010), 69% 2011 and 69% in Strengthening Emergency Obstetric Care (EOC) was addressed through training of health service providers in EOC, including use of the partograph that is critical in the management of labour. Data at the DRH show that 120 health service providers have been trained in EOC. 2 Trends in Maternal Mortality : WHO, UNICEF, UNFPA. The World Bank Estimates (WHO, 2012) 8 P a g e

To this effect several strategic documents have been developed and include the following: National Reproductive Health Policy 2007 The National Reproductive Health Strategy Contraceptive Commodities Security Strategy Kenya Comparative Assessment of Long Acting and Permanent Methods Activities (December 2008) The National Road Map for Accelerating the attainment of the MDGs related to Maternal and Newborn Health in Kenya (2010) Strategy for improving the uptake of Long Acting and Permanent Methods of Contraception in the family planning programme (July 2008-June 2010) Community Health worker training Manual (have modules on FP and provides an opportunity to include a module for CHWs to motivate women/community regarding LAPMs and referral) IUD Guidelines for Family Planning Service Programmes Course Notebook for Trainers. JHPIEGO 2006 The Government and Donor commitments were able to procure all contraceptive needs for 2008/2009 and 2009/2010 following national Forecasting and Quantification exercises. Currently there is regular review of forecasted quantities according to changing scenarios and constant monitoring of the contraceptive pipeline both upstream and downstream. UNFPA s Contributions In repositioning of FP, revitalization of family planning was undertaken at facility level and community levels. At facility level, this included training of health service providers in the provision of Long Acting and Permanent Methods (LAPM), procurement of Family Planning commodities and supplies and LAPM kits. At the community level, emphasis has been laid on social mobilization, creation of awareness on available family planning services and provision of FP through outreach camps, the use of youth networks and youth peer educators. NCPD has invested resources in advocacy for revitalization of FP and the details are covered in the PD section of the report. Outcome 4 Increased access to and utilization of quality HIV- and STI-prevention services especially for young people (including adolescents) and other key populations at risk KAIS KAIS 2012 results not HIV prevalence in youth (15-24 years) 3.8% N/A 2007 yet out Percentage of women and men aged who had more than one partner in the last 12 months who used a condom during their last sexual intercourse 35% women 62% men KDHS N/A KAIS 2012 results not yet out 9 P a g e
