CDC Kenya annual report 2017
Details:
  • Corporate Authors:
    Center for Global Health (U.S.). Office of the Director for Global Health.
  • Description:
    For nearly 40 years, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has strengthened public health and laboratory systems in Kenya, creating an integrated and state- of-the-art research and program center. This model ties together multiple program areas, leveraging technical strengths and working in partnership with the Government of Kenya (GOK) to build sustainable public health capacity. CDC Kenya saves lives by conducting research on the effectiveness of new interventions—such as vaccines, drugs, and diagnostics—and by preventing disease, reducing death and disability, and implementing evidence-based public health programs.
