Kenya Demographic and Health Survey (KDHS - 2015) SFG2064 REPUBLIC OF KENYA Public Disclosure Authorized MINISTRY OF HEALTH Transforming Health Systems for Universal Care Project Vulnerable and Marginalized Groups Planning Framework (VMGPF) March, 2016 Public Disclosure Authorized Public Disclosure Authorized Public Disclosure Authorized Prepared by Ministry of Health1 with Technical assistance from Julius Muchemi Safeguards and Social Development ERMIS Africa Tel: +254 720 703606 Email: [email protected] This VMGPF for the project has been prepared based on the OP 4.10 of the World Bank and the applicable laws and regulations of the Government of Kenya. The OP 4.10 is triggered when it is likely that groups that meet criteria of OP 4.10 “are present in, or have collective attachment to, the project area”. It is to guide the preparation of subprojects that may affect Vulnerable and Marginalised Groups (VMGs) in the proposed project areas. OP 4.10 ‘contributes to the Bank's mission of poverty reduction and sustainable development by ensuring that the development process fully respects the dignity, human rights, economies, and cultures of Indigenous Peoples. For all projects that are proposed for Bank financing and affect Vulnerable and Marginalised Groups (VMGs), the Bank requires the borrower to engage in a process of free, prior, and informed consultation leading to broad community support. The Bank provides project financing only where free, prior, and informed consultation results in broad community support to the project by the affected vulnerable and marginalised groups’. Such Bank-financed projects include measures to; 1. Avoid potentially adverse effects on the Indigenous Peoples’ communities; or 2. When avoidance is not feasible, minimize, mitigate, or compensate for such effects; 3. Ensure that the vulnerable and marginalised people receive social and economic benefits that are culturally appropriate and gender as well as inter-generationally inclusive; and that the VMGF is based on free, prior and informed consultations with indigenous peoples leading to broad community support. The objectives of the policy are to avoid adverse impacts on vulnerable and marginalised groups, secure broad community support for the project and to provide Vulnerable and Marginalized Groups (VMGs) with culturally appropriate benefits. The Ministry wishes to thank the many health actors from the National, County Governments, VMGs, IPOs and NGOs who participated in the consultations and disclosure workshops. 1 Mr Joachim Mwanza, Dr Omar O.A,, Dr. Valeria Makory, Ms Catherine Ndiso ii LIST OF ABBREVIATIONS ANC Antenatal Care AWPs Annual Work Plans BP Bank Policy BEmONC Basic Emergency Obstetric and Neonatal Care CEmONC Comprehensive Emergency Obstetric and Neonatal Care CoK Constitution of Kenya CPS Country Partnership Strategy CSO Civil society organizations CRA Commission on Revenue Allocation CRD Civil Registration Department CRVS Civil Registration and Vital Statistics DoHCF Division of Health Care Financing DPs Development Partners EAs Environmental Assessments EIA Environmental Impact Assessment EMP Environmental Management Plan ESIA Environmental and Social Impact Assessment ESMP Environmental and Social Management Plan FPICon Free, Prior and Informed Consultation FS Feasibility Study GDP Gross Domestic Product GOK Government of Kenya GRM Grievance Redress Mechanism HCWMP Health Care Waste Management Plan HIS Health Information System HFS Health Financing System IDA International Development Association IP Indigenous Peoples IPOs Indigenous Peoples Organizations KMTC Kenya Medical Training College KNCHR Kenya National Commission on Human Rights KQMH Kenya Quality Model for Health Kshs.

The Government of Kenya has requested the World Bank to help fund the Transforming Health Systems for Universal Care (THS_UC) project. The project development objective (PDO) is “to improve utilization and quality of primary health care (PHC) services with a focus on reproductive, maternal, newborn, child, and adolescent health (RMNCAH) services.” The Project will achieve this objective by: (i) improving access to and demand for quality PHC services; and (ii) strengthening institutional capacity in selected key areas to accelerate progress towards universal health care (UHC) in the recently devolved Kenya health system. Project Beneficiaries 2. While the Project is expected to benefit the whole population, its key beneficiaries are women of reproductive age including adolescents and children under five who utilize PHC services most. As development partners (DPs) are already providing different support especially to the underserved counties, the Project will provide flexible funding to all 47 counties to address critical

This is an attempt to write the story of Scripture translations in Kenya. The story started in 1845 when J.L. Krapf, a German C.M.S. missionary, started his translations of Scriptures into Swahili, Galla and Kamba. The work of translation has since continued to go from strength to strength. There were many problems during the pioneer days. Translators did not know well enough the language into which they were to translate, nor could they get dependable help from their illiterate and semi­ literate converts.

  • Dentality, Areal Features, and Phonological Change in Northeastern Bantu*
    Studies in African Linguistics Volume 16, Number 3, December 1985 DENTALITY, AREAL FEATURES, AND PHONOLOGICAL CHANGE IN NORTHEASTERN BANTU* Derek Nurse University of British Columbia A minority of the world's languages appear to have a series of dental (as opposed to alveolar) obstruents. Proto-Bantu does not have such a series, nor do most East African Bantu lan­ guages. By contrast, three Bantu languages in northeastern Kenya (the northern Swahili dialects, Pokomo, E1wana) have ac­ quired such a series, which thus merits explanation. There are three mechanisms involved: (a) the borrowing of loan sounds along with loan vocabulary, (b) a simple phonological shift whereby inherited alveolars moved one place to become den­ tal, and (c) a more complicated shift whereby inherited (pre) palatals bypassed an intervening alveolar series to become den­ tal, a process little reported in the literature. It is hy­ pothesised that these forms of denta1isation took place u~der historical conditions of contact with neighboring Cushitic communities--not the larger Eastern Cushitic communities of today (Somali, Orma), but rather the ancestral forms of what are now remnant languages, (probably) Southern Cushitic Daha10 and (possible) Eastern Cushitic Aweera. 1. Introduction Our purpose is to attempt to explain the appearance of denta1ity as an areal innovation in the consonant systems of the Bantu (Sabaki) langua~es of the Lower Tana region of northeastern Kenya. A series of dental stops occurs in a minority of languages wor1d~ide. If we take the selection of 700 languages in Ruh1en [1976] to be representative of the world's languages, then we find the following.
