Description

A team led by Fatuma Guleid reports a case study on helping officials use review findings to fix a free maternity program in Kenya. The program, Linda Mama, pays for births so mothers face no bill. The team shared a review of the program in three counties, then helped local actors draft action plans together.

Talks with twenty-five people found modest gains in how the program ran. Workshops gave each side a hearing, and joint plans sharpened talk between groups. Gains varied by county. Virus-era limits, weak facilities, and late payments from the program held back full follow-through. The authors back this sharing approach for complex programs.
