Initiatives to Address Healthcare Financing and Nutrition in Kenya - September 2025

The WHX Nairobi and WHX Labs Nairobi expos are set to open at the Kenyatta International Convention Centre (KICC) to address critical issues in healthcare financing, diagnostics, and leadership in Kenya. Separately, Kenyan chamas and informal savings groups are being explored as a solution to transform healthcare access by pooling resources to make medical insurance affordable for millions. On the nutrition front, Kenyan millers are urging for stronger consumer awareness regarding fortified foods, citing slow uptake despite enhanced quality and safety. The millers warn that compliance costs result in slightly increased prices, making it crucial for consumers to understand the products' value.
