BORESHA: The GSK and Save the Children Maternal and Newborn Health Signature Programme in Kenya

The GSK and Save the Children Partnership Programme in Kenya tested high impact and innovative public health interventions at the community level to increase demand for maternal and neonatal health (MNH) services, and at the health facility level to improve service availability and quality of care. Through sustained engagement with key decision makers, Save the Children built the case for responsible, increased public spending on health. The second phase of the programme (2018-2021) sought to embed the sustainability of key interventions tested in Phase 1 in Bungoma and Busia counties, take these activities to scale across Kenya and strengthen the focus on identifying key innovations to help prevent maternal and newborn mortality.
