Health Research Advocacy

We at KHIDNET believe that programming on any health aspect ought to be based on facts accruing from research. We therefore value the importance of research in informing policy makers, health practitioners and health agencies in designing population specific interventions that will eventually create the desired impact. Owing to this, we are always engaged in research undertakings independently as KHIDNET and in partnership with other individuals and institutions such as line NGOs, government institutions, universities and donor agencies. Most of our research undertakings are done at community level to establish issues influencing community health after which appropriate public health remedies are forged and implemented. Therefore, based on research, advocacy for improvement in the programming, service delivery and project method of implementation is always made. The organization is also engaged from time to time in networking with government legal institutions to strengthen reporting of violence against women cases and ensuring that the victims are given a fair hearing in courts of law. The organization also advocates for observance of equal rights among couples, in families, politics and economic aspirations.
