Today marks a defining moment in Kenya’s health advocacy journey as we launched an advocacy masterpiece the #CEBA Playbook. Kenya has made steady progress in improving #RMNCAH+N indicators, including higher immunization coverage and reduced child mortality. However, disparities across counties, gaps in preventive services, and varying uptake of the #HPVVaccine remain, underscoring the need for sustained advocacy, stronger accountability, and increased investment in Primary Health Care (#PHC). It is against this backdrop that health officials, partners, policymakers, and Health Professional Associations convened to launch the CEBA Playbook a practical, step-by-step guide to implementing evidence-based health advocacy. Developed through four years of implementation, the Playbook captures real experiences, lessons, and strategies that have successfully moved data into action. Representing the @MOH_Kenya, Dr. Ephantus Maree and Dr. Ayub Manya emphasized the shift toward structured, evidence-based advocacy and the growing use of local data to inform policy and decision-making. They highlighted the importance of inclusive partnerships and ensuring that policies are effectively translated into action at the community level. From the CEBA team, Prof. @FredWere14 and Dr. @DanOdallo1 underscored that the Playbook is not about closure, but continuity, designed to nurture lasting champions and sustain momentum. They emphasized the power of partnerships, coordinated action, and the need to embed advocacy within systems to drive long-term impact, including advancing #HPVVaccine uptake. Dr. @simonkigondu, President of the @KenyaMedics_KMA, called on health professionals to step up as advocates, noting that those on the ground are best placed to influence change. He also stressed the importance of documenting lessons, positioning the Playbook as a critical reference for future advocacy efforts. Across all speakers, one message stood out clearly: sustainable change will depend on empowered champions, strong partnerships, and the consistent use of evidence to drive decisions. The #CEBA Playbook now serves as a roadmap for project managers, researchers, civil society, government leaders, and partners to sustain momentum, strengthen coordination, and advance advocacy efforts that will continue to improve health outcomes across Kenya. @TheKOGSociety @KCOA_Official

The #CEBA Project Regional Caucus Members have been strong pillars in the implementation and success of the CEBA project where they have been championing better health outcomes and increased local funding within PHC and RMNCAH+N spaces. The Caucus has created a unified voice that engages county leadership and decision-makers to prioritize health in planning, budgeting, and policy discussions. Caucus members have gained the skills and confidence to engage Governors, county executives, and technical teams in meaningful conversations on health priorities. Their advocacy has contributed to ensuring that critical issues in #PHC/ #RMNCAH+N and #HPV vaccination are included in county development plans and implementation frameworks. In several counties, these efforts have supported the development of policies, the launch of county-level initiatives, and increased allocation of local resources to support health and nutrition interventions. The cross-sector and inter-departmental collaborative approach has enabled counties to identify practical solutions to local challenges, implement community-centered initiatives, and promote awareness on issues affecting mothers, children, and families. From supporting nutrition planning and improving food security initiatives to promoting immunization awareness and strengthening accountability through data and evidence, the impact of this collective advocacy continues to be felt at the county level. Beyond influencing policy and resource allocation, the experience has empowered health professionals to step into their leadership role as advocates for the communities they serve. By engaging decision-makers with evidence and practical solutions, they continue to champion sustainable approaches that strengthen health systems and ensure that the gains made in #PHC and #RMNCAH+N advocacy are protected and sustained for the benefit of communities across counties. @KenyaMedics_KMA

"She saved a stranger’s child with $15. Decades later, she discovered why he had been searching for her. In 1982, a Kenyan boy named Chris Mburu stood on the brink of losing everything. He was the brightest student in his rural district, studying by lamplight inside an earthen house without electricity. But his family could not afford his school fees. Without help, his education would end — along with any chance of escaping a life spent picking coffee in the fields. Meanwhile, across the world in Sweden, an 80-year-old kindergarten teacher named Hilde Back came across a notice for a child sponsorship program. She chose a name from a list: Chris Mburu, Kenya. She began sending $15 every school term. There was no recognition, no expectation of gratitude — just a quiet decision to help a child she believed she would never meet. That small amount changed everything. Chris stayed in school. Over time, he and Hilde exchanged letters. She asked about his teachers, his studies, and his dreams. Through her words, he realized she wasn’t just part of an organization. She was a real person who believed in him. And he never forgot her. Chris eventually graduated at the top of his law class at the University of Nairobi. He later earned a Fulbright scholarship to Harvard. He went on to become a United Nations human rights lawyer, helping prosecute genocide and crimes against humanity around the world. Yet one thing always weighed on his heart. He had never properly thanked the woman who made his journey possible. In truth, he barely knew who she was. In 2001, Chris founded a scholarship program for children like himself — talented students from poor families whose potential might otherwise be lost. He asked the Swedish Ambassador in Kenya to help him locate his mysterious sponsor so he could name the foundation after her. They found her. Hilde Back. Still alive. Still living quietly in Sweden. Chris traveled to meet her for the first time. He expected to meet a wealthy philanthropist. Instead, he found a humble, warm woman living simply — genuinely surprised that anyone considered her actions remarkable. Then filmmaker Jennifer Arnold began documenting their reunion. During her research, she uncovered something Hilde had never told Chris. Hilde Back had not been born in Sweden. She was born in Nazi Germany in 1922 to a Jewish family. At sixteen, when Hitler’s Nuremberg Laws banned Jewish children from attending school, strangers helped smuggle her to Sweden. Her parents stayed behind because Sweden’s refugee policies did not allow older Jews to enter. Both were later sent to concentration camps. Her father died there. Her mother disappeared, never to be heard from again. Hilde survived the Holocaust because strangers helped her escape. She lost her own education because of who she was. Fifty years later, she quietly paid for the education of a child across the world — a child who would grow up to fight the same hatred that destroyed her family. When Chris learned her story, he wept. Hilde, meanwhile, had no idea that the boy she sponsored had devoted his life to prosecuting genocide. In 2003, Hilde traveled to Kenya for the inauguration of the Hilde Back Education Fund. The entire village welcomed her as an honorary elder. In 2012, she returned again to celebrate her 90th birthday, surrounded by hundreds of children whose futures had been transformed through her generosity. Hilde Back passed away on January 13, 2021, at the age of 98. Today, the Hilde Back Education Fund has supported nearly 1,000 Kenyan children in continuing their education. Many have graduated from universities around the world. Many now give back — mentoring younger students and contributing monthly donations to support the next generation. One woman. Fifteen dollars. One child. That child created a foundation. That foundation changed hundreds of lives. And those lives continue to change others.

My father was 65 when I was born. Today he would be 112. Here’s what having an “old” father actually gave me. A man who had already lived. Oxford Rhodes Scholar. Captain of his several sports teams. Squadron Leader in the RAF at 26. An OB/GYN who built a 60-bed hospital in Kingston, Jamaica (his home) and delivered thousands of babies. But none of that is what shaped me most. He sang me Old Man River while I fell asleep in his arms every night. Got me up at sunrise to swim Seven Mile Beach where I grew up. Chopped coconuts open for me at breakfast. Taught me to dive, to spear fish, to hold my breath longer than fear. He didn’t do political correctness. He did conviction, honor and discipline. When I disappointed him, he didn’t explode. He spoke sternly and I straightened up. Not out of fear. Out of respect. He was older than most dads. But I never felt shortchanged, I barely noticed. I felt proud to have an older father. I felt protected. Chosen. I felt the gravity of a prolific legacy I still haven’t stopped trying to uphold. He died when I was 24. Long enough to imprint me. Not long enough to thank him properly. If you’re an older man wondering whether it’s too late to build something that lasts… it’s not. A father’s presence echoes far beyond his lifespan. 112 years since he entered the world, 22 since he left, and I still measure myself against his voice. Happy Birthday, Daddy 💛

Maggy almost turned back at the clinic gate. The queue was long, her baby was restless, and she wasn’t sure if she had come on the right day for his vaccine. As she waited under the shade with other mothers, a community health promoter sat beside her and gently walked her through her child’s immunization card, explaining what each vaccine protects against and why timing matters. By the time Maggy reached the nurse’s desk, her worry had eased. She left the clinic with her baby vaccinated, a clear return date marked on the card, and the reassurance that she was doing the right thing to keep her child healthy and protected. #CEBA #PHC #RMNCAH+N #HPVVaccine
