I. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

The overall goal of the Kenya Nutrition and Health Program plus (NHPplus) is to improve the nutrition status of Kenyans through improving access and demand for quality nutrition interventions at facility and community levels; strengthening nutrition commodities management; and improving food and nutrition security. The five-year program which started in January 2015 is in its second year of implementation and the current report refers to its 5th quarter (January – March, 2016) of implementation. The program is addressing undernutrition through interventions that focus on both the immediate and basic contributors to malnutrition. Key among NHPplus activities include capacity strengthening, technical assistance and data management/M&E support to health managers and workers at National and County levels; support for efficiencies in nutrition commodity procurement, management, distribution, quality control and safety; partnering with stakeholders to impact good nutrition for mothers and children; and working with Feed the Future (FtF) and other agri-nutrition partners to devise innovative approaches to reduce stunting during the first 1,000 days “window of opportunity and increase resilience of vulnerable households in the five focus counties of Busia, , , Samburu and Tharaka Nithi.

During the quarter, the program provided Maternal Infant and Young Child Nutrition (MIYCN) Technical Working Group (TWG) with both technical and financial support to re-design and review the National Policy on MIYCN. NHPplus also supported the National Nutrition Technical Forum (NTF) secretariat to host a quarterly meeting and Nutrition Technical Forum (CNTF) secretariat to host a meeting to develop its terms of reference.

The program sensitized 227 health care workers from 80 health facilities, in the 6 counties of Nairobi, , , Kitui, Homabay and Migori, on Nutrition Assessment Counselling and Support (NACS). The program also conducted facility assessment in using HiNi- OJT tool and identified 54 facilities for subsequent capacity building on management of acute malnutrition. In Kitui County, the program conducted a CME on “In-patient Management of Severe Acute Malnutrition” with a focus on triage and admission criteria for 27 health care workers in Katulani Health centre.

To contribute towards improving nutrition related behaviours, the reference charts for Nutrition Diagnosis and Protocol for Food by Prescription was revised to integrate key messages on maternal nutrition, IYCF, WASH and Agri-Nutrition for piloting in the subsequent quarters. Social mobilization activities for Vitamin A Supplementation were conducted in , Matayos Sub-County and covered 5 wards Burumba, Bukhayo, Busibwabo, Matayos and Lunga. 69 ECDE centres were targeted and 8,000 children <5years old were exposed to key messages. 60 ECDE teachers and 50 CHVs were provided with information on the importance of vitamin A supplementation, with supplementation of children >2 years old as the priority behaviour promoted. The program has also initiated discussions with mother support groups in Tharaka Nithi on interventions to address nutrition related behaviours.

During the reporting period, NHPplus participated and supported one Nutrition Officers from MOH to participate in the annual East and Southern Africa Region Multisectoral Nutrition Global Learning and Evidence Exchange (MSN- GLEE) forum in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. During the forum, countries shared experiences and exchanged evidence based on best practices. New indicators to monitor progress towards achievement of USAID Multisectoral Nutrition Strategy goals, were also disseminated.

The program continued to work closely with Equatorial Nut Processors (ENP) Ltd to ensure that quarterly targets for production and distribution of nutrition commodities are achieved, and stock outs and incidences of expired commodities are minimized. The program facilitated 5

trainings on quantification and reporting on nutrition commodities in 6 counties. Site visits to health facilities were conducted to nurture facility level inventory management and use of data collection tools for nutrition commodities. Discussions are at advanced stage for ENP to employ six regional representatives to monitor and track FBF availability, requisitions and expiry in the country. We have continued to monitor the manufacturing of FBF through regular monitoring visits to ENP and post batch testing to ensure high quality and safe nutrition commodities.

NHPplus procured 534 MT of FBF, over 100% of the quarterly target (to include buffer stock) comprising 334.4 MT (18,556 cartons) for adults, 127.2 MT (7,067 cartons) for Children and 72.4 MT (4,022 cartons) for pregnant and post-partum mothers. 760.63 MT of FBF, including buffer stocks from the previous quarter, were distributed to 350 health as 464.25MT (25,792 cartons) for adults, 204.87MT (11,382 cartons) for children and 91.51MT (5,084 cartons) for pregnant/postpartum mothers. The program did not distribute any RUTF during the quarter due to customs clearance challenges. However, KEMSA through Global Fund procured 46.3MT of RUTF of which 18.6 MT (40%) was distributed.

To expand the food manufacturers’ base, the program continues to explore the market with an objective to identifying additional FBF food processors. During the reporting period, the program visited Stawi Foods, a local food processor involved in milling of nutritious porridge flours for the national and international markets. The plant’s operations were, however, found to be mostly manual and of very small magnitude (an output of 15-20 MT per month); and the only analysis done on the grains was moisture content.

During the quarter the program, jointly with FAO, carried out a baseline survey in to obtain food mapping and consumption data, as well as data on prevalence of children 6-23 months receiving minimum acceptable diet (FtF indicator 3.1.9.1(1)), prevalence of HH with moderate or severe hunger (FtF indicator 3.1.9.1(3)) and total quantity of targeted nutrient rich value chain commodities set aside for home consumption by direct beneficiary producer (FtF indicator 4.5.2.8). The data analysis is ongoing.

Towards improving food diversification, complementary feeding for children <5 years and resilience of vulnerable households, the program trained 47 MOH staff from key facilities in Kitui County on diversification of foods and utilization of local nutrient dense foods; and on developing linkages with agriculture and existing food safety net programs in the county. In Busia County, the program leveraged on Vitamin A Supplementation sensitization, to provide information to 17 MOH, 7 MOALF and 2 MOEST officers on Vitamin A dense foods available in the County. The program is exploring on using kitchen gardens available in the County to conduct field demonstrations on the production techniques for target vitamin A rich value chains as well as supporting food preparation demonstrations to address diet diversification. In a mapping exercise, the program identified 5 CBO networks, 180 CUs, 406 ECDE centres and 45 agriculture extension workers in Busia County as possible collaboration platforms for implementation of multisectoral nutrition programming activities.

On data reporting, monitoring and evaluation, the program supported 609 (62.8%) health facilities from 40 counties, a 38.4% (n=970) increase compared to the previous quarter. Client assessments were 73,608, relatively similar to preceding quarter, of which 18,285 malnourished clients received commodity nutrition interventions. An additional 8,263 client records were in the process of being inputted into the electronic system during compilation of this report. Newly assessed clients accounted for 54.3% of total assessments. Of the total assessed clients, 73.1% and 26.9% were children and adult clients respectively. Among clients with complete client category data, pregnant and post-natal women comprised 4.9% of the adult population while under 5-year-old children comprised 68.9% of the child population.

6

To enhance data quality and reporting, 16 facilities were supported with customized nutrition electronic systems and their HCWs were inducted on its use. Overall, there was increased facility reporting of 38.8% from the preceding quarter (609 vs 373). However, the program identified lack of a coordinated departmental approach to the portal development as a hindrance in its successful deployment, an activity that was identified as an essential Rapid Results Initiative (RRI).

BMI reporting rate for non-PPP clients was at 94.4%. Of the newly enrolled non-PPP adult clients with “Client Category” classification, 7.4% were severely malnourished. Clients with BMI>18.5 at enrollment 70.8% of non-PPP clients. 60.1% of PPP clients supported during the reporting period were newly enrolled clients. Newly enrolled child clients accounted for 54.6% of all assessed children during the quarter.

II. KEY ACHIEVEMENTS (Qualitative Impact)

1. Improving Access and Demand for Quality Nutrition Interventions at Community and Facility levels

1.1 Strengthening Leadership, Advocacy and Policy Planning

Nutrition and Health program plus on request, internally reviewed 10-day course offered by the African Nutrition Leadership Programme (ANLP) with the intention of using this course as an approach to building nutrition leadership in Kenya. The ANLP 10-day course covers advocacy, leadership values, communication skills, management skills and theory of change. The ANLP is a needs based leadership program focused on developing the abilities of individuals to lead implementation of nutrition related interventions as part of multisectoral teams or groups at national or county level. Nutrition and Health Program plus has initiated engagements with the trainers of the ANLP to determine viability of hosting 10-day course locally. When implemented the African Nutrition Leadership Programme will strengthen the leadership capabilities of the national level nutrition and agriculture program managers

During the quarter, Nutrition and Health Program plus supported the Maternal Infant and Young Child Nutrition (MIYCN) TWG to re-design and review the National policy on MIYCN. The National MIYCN policy statement standardizes care practices for health workers providing maternal and child health services in every health facility. It also provides guidelines for infant and young feeding practices in the context of HIV. The National policy statement encourages mothers to breastfeed exclusively for 6 months, introduce appropriate, adequate and safe complementary foods. Mothers are also encouraged to breastfeed for at least 2 years and beyond. Printing and dissemination of this policy will be done in subsequent quarter. When printed the National policy on MIYCN will be distributed to all counties. When implemented the policy will contribute towards improving exclusive breastfeed and on appropriate use of complementary feeding.

Working with Nutrition and Dietetics Unit, the program also supported the secretariat of National Nutrition Technical forum (NTF) to host a quarterly technical forum on March 15, 2016. Three key presentations were made during the meeting (1) Citizen Voice and Action by World Vision, (2) Integrated Human Resource Information System (iHRIS) by Funzo Kenya and (3) Capacity development for nutrition by MOH. 25 participants attended the NTF representing ACF, Hellen Keller International, World Vision, GAIN, FAO, IMC, UNICEF, Funzo, NHPplus and MOH. Key output during the forum included adoption of the terms of reference.

Within the key focus counties, the program supported County Nutrition Technical Forums in Samburu County where the secretariat developed terms of reference for the forum. Additionally, the secretariat was supported to host one-day meeting. During this meeting 6 participants drown from MOA, MOH, WFP, IMC, World Vision and UNICEF were in attendance. The objective of this meeting was to plan and coordinate multisectoral county activities for the year. The CNTF approved terms of reference will govern the Nutrition future activities in Samburu.

In Marsabit, the program disseminated project work plan for the county during the technical forum. The CNTF was attended by 17 participants representing MOH, and partners including UNICEF, Concern World Wide and FHK. The outcome from this meeting was a harmonized county quarterly activity plan that included NHPplus activities.

1.2 Improving Nutrition Service Delivery Management, Coordination and Implementation

During the quarter, the program trained 227 healthcare providers on Nutrition Assessment Counselling and Support (NACS) covering 6 counties of Nairobi (25), Narok (33), Nakuru (57), Kitui (46), Homabay (30) and Migori (36). The training was coordinated with close collaborations with County Nutrition Coordinators, Afya Jijini, APHIAplus Rift, APHIAplus Eastern, and APHIAplus Western. Included in the training were 9 APHIAplus Nutrition technical officers drawn from each APHIAplus zone.

Cadre of HCW Trained Number The approach used for training was visual County HRIO 1 interactive and participatory learning where case Clinical officer 14 studies, brainstorming and buzz groups were used. County Nutrition Coordinator 3 Two training modules, Module 1 – Standard HRIO 54 Treatment Guide (3 hours) and Module 3 – Nutrition Nursing Officer 43 Nutrition Officer 75 Commodity Management (3.5 hours), were used in Pharm Tech 12 the one-day training. The key outcomes include Pharmacist 2 developing the capacity of 80 health facilities and M&E officer 3 227 health care to provide nutrition assessment and Sub County HRIO 5 counselling. It is expected that this will lead to Sub County Nutrition Officer 13 improved nutrition service delivery and Sub County Community Health Nurse 2 Total 227 management within the facilities covered and better nutrition outcomes for the patients.

Towards establishing the capacity of the facilities to manage acute malnutrition, the program conducted facility assessment in Kitui County using HiNi-OJT tool. 54 facilities were identified using the selection criteria based on (1) Presence of MNCH services, (2) Established community unit and (3) located at sub-county or ward levels. The identification of facilities at Marsabit, Samburu, Busia and Tharaka Nithi counties will be conducted in the subsequent quarter.

To improve Vitamin A for ECDE Supplementation using multisectoral approach, the program conducted training for 26 officers from MoH (17), MoEST (2) and MoALF (7) in Matayos Sub county of Busia County. The training was conducted using multisectoral package drawn from existing vitamin A and Agri-nutrition materials. As a result of the ownership and supervision efforts of the Matayos multisectoral team, 6,082 children were supplemented with Vitamin A. In Samburu North, Samburu County, the program trained 271 ECDE teachers and 81 primary school heads on Vitamin A strategies including dietary diversity and documentation using ECDE register.

To improve nutrition assessment and accurate diagnosis and prescriptions, the program has initiated the process of procuring anthropometric equipment for service delivery points offering nutrition services. This will address assessment data gaps currently being experienced such as in , where the facilities do not measure MUAC for pregnant and postpartum mothers due to lack of adult MUAC tapes. It is expected that distribution will be carried out in the coming quarter.

1.3 Improving Nutrition Related Behaviour

To improve the nutrition related behaviours, the program conducted social mobilization activities for Vitamin A Supplementation in Matayos Sub-County of Busia County. The uptake of vitamin A supplementation in Matayos is 39% and is primarily due to lack of knowledge amongst the caregivers of children above 9 months. The social mobilization covered 5 wards Burumba, Bukhayo, Busibwabo, Matayos and Lunga. To address the poor attitude and 9

behaviour for vitamin A supplementation, 69 ECDE centres were targeted where 60 ECDE teachers and 50 CHVs were provided with information on the importance of vitamin A supplementation. The priority behaviour promoted was vitamin A supplementation of children above 2 years old, and how this is linked to better education outcomes. Through this process, 8,000 children under five years have been exposed to key messages during social mobilization in Matayos.

To address cultural behaviours, beliefs and practices that affect infant and young child feeding, the program worked together with Kibugua Mother to Mother Support Group in Tharaka Nithi County to provide information and practical support to mothers who are breastfeeding and/or weaning infants. During the one-day meeting, 41 mothers attended meeting and were provided with practical information on issues of insufficient breastmilk, timely introduction of complementary foods, locally available foods that can be used for complementary feeding and preparation of porridge for infants. Figure 1: Kibugua Mother to Mother Support Group Meeting The main objective of the support group is to provide information and practical support to mothers who are breastfeeding and/or weaning infants. This support group is linked to Kibugua Health centre located in Meru south sub county of Tharaka Nithi County. It has established a demonstration kitchen garden within the Kibugua Health centre farm. The program will continue working together with the women group to conduct cooking demonstrations and to improve the demonstration garden to make it a model for the community.

1.4 Increasing opportunities for learning and sharing of best practices in nutrition

During the quarter, the program supported 2 Nutritionist that included the Program Nutrition Specialist and Nutrition Officer from the Nutrition and Dietetics Unit (NDU) to attend the annual East and Southern Africa region-Multisectoral Nutrition Global Learning and Evidence Exchange (MSN- GLEE) forum held in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania on March 8-10th 2016. This forum was attended by USAID country missions from Tanzania, Uganda, Rwanda, Ethiopia, Malawi, Zambia, Mozambique, Zimbabwe, and Kenya. Also in attendance were USAID funded implementing partners e.g., SPRING, FANTA III, Community connector, University of California Davis, Manoff Group, International Potato Centre, Catholic Relief Services, Save the Children, GAIN, DFID, EAC, Concern Worldwide and Media for Development The MSN- GLEE is a regional forum where countries share experiences, learn and exchange evidence based on best practices. The forum brings USAID Bureau and Mission staff together with experts and field practitioners working on agriculture, economic growth, WASH, nutrition, and health Programs. The GLEE forum contributes to country-led improvement efforts to lay out the foundational elements that make up effective multi-sectoral nutrition programs. The forum provided an opportunity for learning from other counties and experts towards the country-led improvement efforts for effective multi-sectoral nutrition programs. The program, also showcased Kenyan’s efforts towards implementing multi-sectoral nutrition Strategy and provided technical expertise during the plenary sessions. During the meeting new indicators to monitor the progress towards achievement of USAID Multisectoral Nutrition Strategy goals, were disseminated. countries will begin reporting on these indicators beginning FY2016/17.

During the quarter, the program also participated in the National Demographic Health Survey dissemination meeting in Nairobi. The objective of the dissemination meeting was to review country progress based on the Kenya Nutrition Action Plan (KNAP 2012 – 2017) monitoring and evaluation framework. This framework identifies 9 indicators with national targets that direct activities towards achievement of KNAP goals. During the meeting key determinant for positive outcome for any nutrition indicator was noted to be level of education of women where the survey indicated that women who exclusively breastfeed for 6 months had attained secondary education or higher. The program will work towards ensuring and tracking the identified 9 indicators within its key focus counties of Tharaka Nithi, Kitui, Busia, Marsabi and Samburu.

1.5 Increasing knowledge and skills of Health Care Workers in nutrition

During the quarter Nutrition and Health Program plus Nutrition specialist and Technical officer participated in the WHO-Infant and Young Child Feeding Regional Piloting of Training Manual in Nairobi. This field testing workshop was in Nairobi from March 22 – 26, 2016. The piloting of the manual was based on new training methodologies that advocates for use of visualization in participatory learning, buzz groups, brainstorming, role plays, drama, case study, demonstration with return demonstration and field practice. All these approaches were used and tested with master trainers who provided feedback on how to improve specific methodology based on content of training session. The field practice sessions were conducted at New Born Unit in Kenya National Teaching and Referral Hospital (KNH). Nutrition and Health Program plus Nutrition specialist was part of the team that moderated all activities during day one which covered introduction to IYCF, importance of breastfeeding, how breastfeeding works, assessing a breastfeeding session, listening and learning, positioning baby at breast and use of growth charts. Participants included master trainers from Brazil, USA, Philippines, Ghana, Ethiopia, Zambia, Swaziland, and host country Kenya. The key outcome from this training was a reviewed and updated IYCF trainer’s guide and counselling card.

In Kitui, the program conducted CME for 27 health care workers in Katulani Health centre. The topic covered during the CME was “In-patient Management of Severe Acute Malnutrition” with a focus on triage, admission criteria and 10 step approach. The CME is part of the peer to peer learning that promotes learning by doing, in this case the 10 step approach used for inpatient management of severe acute malnutrition was discussed. This was followed up by learning sessions conducted during routine ward rounds. This learning approach will ensure health workers competence on inpatient management of SAM improves the cure rates of these patients.

2. Strengthening Nutrition Commodity Management

During this reporting period, program continued to undertake activities towards strengthening nutrition commodity management at health facility level. The program has continued to work closely with Equatorial Nut Processors Ltd to ensure that quarterly targets for production and distribution of nutrition commodities are achieved, with 350 facilities receiving nutrition commodities directly from the program. The program also facilitated trainings on quantification and reporting on nutrition commodities in 6 counties. Site visits to health facilities were conducted with the main focus on facility level inventory management and use and availability of data collection tools for nutrition commodities.

2.1 Improving Production, Supply and Distribution of Nutrition Commodities

The program continued to conduct factory visits and meetings with Equatorial Nut Processors with the main aim of ensuring continuous production of high quality fortified blended flours. Discussions focused on aligning program projections with those of raw materials required for manufacturing nutrition commodities procured through the program to avoid stock outs and to ensure on-time delivery to the target facilities.

Additionally, discussions are at advanced stage for Equatorial Nut Processors to employ six (6) regional representatives to monitor and track FBF availability, requisitions and expiry in the country as a value-addition to the program. When implemented this will improve FBF availability and reporting, minimize stock outs and reduce incidences of expired commodities through re-distribution before the expiry period in the country

During the quarter, the procured 29,645 cartons of FBF exceeding the quarterly target with over 100%. Part of this procurement was for buffer stock for the coming quarter. The FBF procured comprised of 18,556 cartons for adults, 7,067 cartons for Children and 4,022 cartons for pregnant and post-partum mothers. It is estimated that the procured nutrition commodities will cover 12,385 adults, 7,067 children and 2,681 pregnant/postpartum mothers for 3 months.

During the quarter the program distributed 25,792 cartons of FBF Adults, 11,382 cartons of FBF Children and 5,084 cartons of FBF pregnant/postpartum mothers to 350 health facilities that included health facilities supported by AMPATH plus and APHIA plus Nyanza/Western.

Due to Customs clearance challenges the program did not distribute RUTF during the quarter. Customs clearance is a requirement prior to collecting commodities from the Export Processing Zone (EPZ) where the food processor, Insta Products (EPZ) Ltd is located. The necessary documentation has been obtained and it is expected that distribution will be conducted during FY 16 Quarter 3. Of importance to note is that KEMSA through Global Fund procured 46.3MT of RUTF of which 18.6 MT (40%) was distributed by the end March.

To expand food manufacturers’ base, the program has continued to explore additional FBF processors in the market. Stawi Foods has been identified as an emerging food processor. A factory visit was conducted at Stawi Foods on January 15, 2016. During the factory visit it emerged that Stawi Foods is a local food processor primarily involved in milling of nutritious porridge flours for the national and international markets. Stawi Foods began operations in 2011 mainly milling banana flour for export and has progressed to processing of porridge flours for the domestic market. Stawi Foods contracts farmers in Meru region for supply of bananas. However, in 2014 company experienced banana drying challenges at source that brought the banana milling operations to a halt. Currently, the food processor is focusing on porridge flours with the main ingredients being maize, soya beans and millet. The plant’s operations are of a small magnitude compared to the other food processors engaged through the program. Cleaning and roasting of the grains is a manual process resulting to low output of 15-20 MT per month. Maize is analyzed for moisture only on receipt from suppliers. In- depth analysis is done on the finished product where samples are taken to KEBS for microbial and chemical tests.

Following the visit, the program will explore potential areas of collaboration, specifically on supporting the food processor in achieving a HACCP certificate after a Supplier Quality Audit is conducted. The program will continue to hold discussions with the food processor and will include Stawi Foods in the subsequent SQA.

During the quarter, the program conducted trainings on quantification and reporting on nutrition commodities in Narok, Nakuru, Kitui, Homabay and Migori counties. During the training, there was emphasis on quantification of nutrition commodities, good storage practices and timely reporting to avoid stock out incidences. Additionally, the program sort and received feedback from the facilities on:

a) Wider coverage in distribution of commodities within the counties: the program will work closely with the county nutrition coordinators and the implementing partners within the counties to ensure that all satellite health facilities supported by the program are provided with nutrition commodities directly and that the facilities receive technical assistance in commodity management and tracking.

b) Packaging of food commodities: The health facilities are generally satisfied with the current food packaging with the exception of Suba where the staff feel that the outer carrier bag should be translucent due to stigma. In Narok County, there was a suggestion to integrate key WASH messages in the outer carrier bags of FBF, for example washing hands before preparation of FBF and feeding children under 2 years. The program will work with the food processor to review the current packaging particularly on food preparation instructions to include key WASH messages.

c) Service and Commodity Data collection tools: The health facilities had adequate stocks of data collection tools with the exception of . The County was provided with all the tools with the exception of MOH 733B that was out of stock at central level. The data collection tool will be availed to the health facilities in the coming quarter.

Similar issues have arisen during the health facilities’ site visits conducted in 5 health facilities namely Maragua Sub County Hospital (Muranga), St. Elizabeth Hospital Chiga (), Referral Hospital (Nakuru), Katulani Sub County Hospital (Kitui) and Matayos Health Centre (Busia).

In addition, observations have been made on caving in of FBF cartons when 4 cartons are stacked on top of each other. This results in loss/damage of the nutrition commodities and need for more storage space. Considering that ENP instructions are to stack up 9 cartons on

13

each other, discussions are ongoing on changing the instructions or strengthening the cartons.

During quarter, the program continued to provide commodity information and to participate in the monthly NASCOP Commodity Security Steering Committee meetings. The main highlights in the reporting quarter were for the program to work closely with NASCOP in 1) procurement and quality assurance activities for nutrition commodities, 2) capacity building of NASCOP staff and health facilities on Logistical Management Information Systems (LMIS) data collection tools and 3) ensure that all facilities have adequate data collection tools. In addition, there is need to strengthen commodity data reporting on DHIS so that all partners can use just one platform to access all commodity data information they require from the health facilities.

During quarter, the program continued to distribute commodity data collection tools to health facilities (also including facilities supported by AMPATH plus and APHIA plus Western programs) as summarized in Table 2. The program is planning to print and distribute additional tools in the coming quarter.

The program continues to monitor the manufacturing of FBF through regular monitoring visits to Equatorial Nut Processors Ltd to ensure high quality and safety nutrition commodities. During one such factory visits conducted on January 19, 2016, it was observed that food temperature after packaging was higher than expected. Recommendations were made on improving the cooling mechanism for the finished products. This would ensure that the nutrition commodities maintain high quality throughout the shelf life. It was also noted that cartons were bulging in the food processors warehouse, further giving prominence to observations made during health facility visits. The program is working together with the food processor to review the specifications for the cartons to ensure that they can withhold pressure as per the minimum requirements.

The program has continued to conduct post batch laboratory testing through use of accredited food laboratories to ensure that FBF procured meets the agreed standards and quality. Test results have continued to indicate that the nutrition commodities were within the set parameters.

2.3 Improving Quality and Safety of Food Commodities and Agricultural Products

To support a more active private sector in creation of additional innovations, options and competition, and approval is received to contract Equatorial Nut Processors Ltd, NHPplus will work closely with the food processor to explore various options/innovations in production of nutrition commodities. The food processor will be expected to develop and submit a concept paper for enhancement of existing and/or development of alternative FBF for management of moderate malnutrition. The concept paper will clearly outline the process and activities that will be carried out including a comprehensive methodology of 1) how the food processor will develop the proposed products including formulation of premixes in line with WHO/CODEX recommendation for new micronutrient formulation for specialized FBF products, 2) how the data that will be gathered or used, 3) how the subcontractor will analyze the data; and 4) how the data and analytic method will be used to scale up the new product.

3. Improving Food and Nutrition Security

During the quarter, the program continued with activities geared towards improving Food and Nutrition Security within the key focus counties of Kitui, Tharaka Nithi, Busia, Samburu and Marsabit. Activities conducted during the quarter included trainings, providing technical assistance during workshops and meetings, baseline surveys performance and strengthening Community support and linkages.

3.1 Increasing Market Access and Consumption of Diverse and Quality Foods

Towards improving food diversification and utilization of local nutrient dense foods for complementary feeding for children under 5 years, the program conducted a training on diversification of foods and utilization of local nutrient dense foods in Kitui. 47 MOH staff drawn from key facilities in Kitui Central, Kitui South, Kitui East, Kitui West, Cadre of HCW Sensitized Number Central, Mwingi North and Mwingi West Nutrition Officer 11 Sub-counties were trained. The training Clinical officer 6 focused on developing nutrition linkages Nutrition Officer 15 with agriculture and facility referral Health records and information officer 10 (HRIO) systems to the existing food safety net Sub County HRIO 5 programs in Kitui county. The existing Total 47 safety net programs identified included:

• Cash Transfer for Orphans and Vulnerable Children (CTOVC) • Program for Persons with Severe Disabilities (PPSD) • Older Persons Cash Transfer Program (OPCT) • Urban Food Subsidy Program (UFSP) • Hunger Safety Net Program (HSNP).

The newly incoming National Safety Net Program (NSNP) was also discussed. In subsequent quarter, the program will liaise with MOH to collect names of vulnerable clients who can be linked to with existing safety net programs and with relevant livelihood and economic empowerment activities within the community. This will contribute to building their resilience for food and nutrition security.

In Busia, the program leveraged on Vitamin A Supplementation training to provide information to 17 MOH, 7 MOALF and 2 MOEST officers on Vitamin A dense food available in Busia. Through community kitchen gardens and demonstration gardens found in ECDE centres, 4K clubs and health facility compounds the program is exploring on how to use the available kitchen gardens to conduct field demonstrations on the production techniques for target vitamin A rich value chains as well as supporting food preparation demonstrations on the target value chains to address diet diversification within the community. This kind of integrated training will be conducted in all the 5 focus counties targeting nutrition-specific and nutrition- sensitive activities at community level.

During the quarter, the program also conducted mapping exercise for CBO, CU, ECDE Centres and Agriculture extension workers in Busia County to identify possible platforms for leveraging agri-nutrition activities. Five CBO networks (Family Life Education Program – FLEP, Busiada Tusonge Mbele, Tazama Bujibo, Tsovo Twaweza and Spider Development Network) with agri-nutrition potential have been identified. A total of 180 CUs, 406 ECDE centres and 45 agriculture extension workers have also been identified. During the subsequent quarters the program will hold further consultations for possible areas of collaborations with the identified CBO, CU, ECDE Centres and Agriculture extension workers. A similar activity has been conducted in Marsabit county where 41 CUs and 27 CHEWS have been identified.

During the quarter, the program participated in a 5-day multi-stakeholder Kenya Food Composition Tables Review workshop in organised by MOH. The objective of the workshop was to review the list of foods to be included in the revised food composition tables, to prioritize foods for nutrient analysis and to develop sampling plans for foods to be analyzed. The reviewed food composition tables will be adapted and contextualized as a resource for Food Recipe Manuals for the 5 focus counties of Busia, Tharaka Nithi, Kitui, Samburu and Marsabit.

The program in collaboration with MOALF and other partners carried out a food mapping exercise for Kitui County to establish food varieties and dietary diversity in the ecological zones for the purpose of developing contextualized food recipes to address complementary feeding practices. the food mapping exercise reviewed that the main food crops grown are Maize, Sorghum, Millet, Beans, Cowpeas and Green Grams. Common vegetables and fruits in the region includes Kales, Tomatoes, Onions, Cowpea leaves, and Water Melons. These findings concur with the NHPplus/FAO baseline report finding carried out in July 2015. The program The food mapping exercise will be followed by contextualization of the already existing Standard National Agri-Nutrition Manual development by MOALF and MOH. The contextualized product will be county specific based on the mapped locally available foods.

This would ensure optimal nutrition status by improving, dietary diversity, food consumption and utilization at the household level, all contributing to reduction in stunting.

3.2 Increasing Resilience of Vulnerable Households and Communities

During the quarter the program jointly with FAO carried out a baseline survey in Marsabit County with the aim of obtaining food mapping and consumption data, prevalence of children 6-23 months receiving minimum acceptable diet (FtF indicator 3.1.9.1(1)), prevalence of households with moderate or severe hunger (FtF indicator 3.1.9.1(3)) and total quantity of targeted nutrient rich value chain commodities set aside for home consumption by direct beneficiary producer (FtF indicator 4.5.2.8). The baseline survey was conducted between February 16th - March 14th 2016 and covered the entire Marsabit County where 306 clusters of households were surveyed. The methodology used during the survey included personal interviews through paper assisted questionnaires, computer assisted interviews and focus group discussions. The data analysis is ongoing and result will be reported at a later date.

During the quarter under review, the program supported Tharaka Nithi County to develop long rains contextualized production planner/calendar for dissemination to farmers. This process supported community driven development approach in enhancing social, economic and environmental resilience through effectively linking vulnerable clients with food security, livelihood and economic support. The down-scaling/contextualization process was done by a technical team from departments of Agriculture, Livestock, Health, Meteorological, NEMA and NDMA. This seasonal document is critical in providing farmers with information to improve production for food and nutrition security. The package developed from the process contains technical information and recommendations to farmers in different languages. Appropriate time of planting, correct choice of varieties of seeds based on duration of the rains, soil and water conservation practices, livestock offtake period are some of the critical technical information delivered through the process. This document will be disseminated to grass roots by FEWs and other stakeholders. The advisories developed was also translated into Kiswahili and the local languages and disseminated and communicated to the local communities through a wide range of channels, including local public meetings, extension forums, radio and other media. This empowers farmers to adapt to the emerging climatic changes.

During the quarter, the program also participated in ILRI-AVCD organized PREG Mapping tool training. The one-day training exposed participants to a simple tool that can allow access to the USAID supported partners in different ASAL counties, their activities and level of investment. Partnership for Resilience and Economic Growth (PREG) mapping tool is to support sequencing, layering and integration in the 9 Arid Counties. The Resilience Program focusses on 5 of these counties namely , , Marsabit, and Turkana.

4. Monitoring and Evaluation

During the reporting period, the program continued to support County governments in data management and reporting with approximately 609 health facilities from 40 counties supported, representing a 38.4% (n=970) increase from preceding quarter. Overall client assessments remained relatively similar to preceding quarter with a total of 73,608 assessments recorded. Of these, a total of 18,285 malnourished clients were provided with commodity nutrition interventions during the quarter.

With support from the CNCs, the program will schedule targeted site support and mentorship visits to mitigate against identified data quality issues. In addition, the program is also working to strengthen the NACS M&E module to include guidance on addressing data quality issues.

To further enhance data quality and reporting, sixteen (16) facilities were supported with customized nutrition electronic systems and HCWs responsible for delivery of NACS services inducted on its use. However, challenges relating to source documentation errors, high staff turnover, and acceptance of EMR system and existence of parallel partner reporting systems were reported.

During the quarter, the program identified lack of a coordinated departmental approach to the portal development as a hindrance to successful deployment. This activity was identified as an essential Rapid Results Initiative (RRI) activity that will guarantee development of a more robust nutrition portal. To ensure user acceptability and ownership, the development process is guided by user feedback and current technological trends. The revision and deployment of content will also take cognizance of current NDU communication/advocacy strategy and guidelines. The portal will also ensure efficiency in information sharing, data utilization, communication, accountability and advocacy across the nutrition spectrum.

Facility Electronic Nutrition Reporting

In addition to general technical assistance to 118 facilities currently utilizing the nutrition EMR system, the program continued to identify facilities with requisite ICT capacity for potential installation and sensitization. The program strategy has been to collaborate with other implementing partners supporting nutrition activities in identification of potential facilities and in provision of routine TA.

Leverage on APHIA plus support and collaboration

During the quarter, the program identified 69 facilities from Western and Nyanza regions currently receiving ICT support from APHIAplus Western/Nyanza. Only 43 of these facilities have been trained previously on NACS/FBP protocol. It was hoped that the program would provide all the raw and compiled source code, associated user/system manuals in addition to capacity building APHIAplus M&E/ICT staff on use of the nutrition reporting software for subsequent rollout to the identified facilities. After consultations with APHIAplus Western/Nyanza, the program could not proceed with installation to the 69 facilities as the nutritionists did not have access to the computers. The available computers are utilized in the management of other HIV/AIDS and non HIV/AIDS related services and commodity data. As the teams continue to explore other options, the program is providing technical assistance to APHIAplus in the rollout of the nutrition commodity electronic E-CDRR. It is expected that this tool will provide supported facilities with a more efficient platform for commodity management and rationalization of monthly orders.

19

Scale up of facility electronic reporting

In support of enhanced provision of NACS at facility level, the program supported electronic nutrition reporting scale up in 16 high volume facilities. Of these, 8 facilities DH, Butere DH, CRH, Nandi Hills DH, DH, Kangema SDH, Chuka SDH and HC received both HW and SW support from the program. In addition, the program also successfully installed the nutrition reporting software in an additional 8 facilities, AIC Litein, ST Marys Hospital, Kibera Community HC, Kianjokoma SDH, Karurumo HC, Kibugu HC, Nembure HC and Karau HC from Nairobi and .

Overall, a total of 35 HCWs comprising of 32 nutritionists, 2 records officers and 1 pharmacy staff from all the 16 supported high volume facilities were trained on the use of the electronic reporting system.

Installation at AIC Litein did not proceed as scheduled as the base OS was not compatible with the current version of the nutrition EMR. The facility is in the process of upgrading their in-house OS software to allow installation.

The customized nutrition reporting system will continue to support management of both service and commodity functions relating to delivery of NACS at facility level. In built validation checks and use of relational database architecture ensures only high quality data is reported. In addition, the system generates monthly service and commodity reports, by facility for upload into DHIS. An encrypted copy of the data set is also submitted to the program for archiving. The system also ensures accountability of delivered commodities by rationalizing facility orders based on their reported consumption.

Procurement of an additional 30 laptop computers to support high volume facilities in provision of NACS services is in progress.

Challenges experienced during implementation include:

• Documentation errors upon introduction of the EMR for Nutrition Services. Some records were not successfully saved into the system since the cases violated validation rules inbuilt in the system. • Continuity of electronic system use affected by high staff turn-over of the trained staff. • Resistance/Slow acceptance of staff to the automated system. • Existence of parallel partner reporting systems • Access to internet connectivity

Facility training on electronic reporting

In an effort to continuously support of improved data quality and timeliness, increase data use at facility and county/sub-county levels, the program conducted a re-training of six (6) health facilities within Nairobi, Muranga and Embu counties primarily due to staff re-deployment. Table 4 below highlights the number of facilities and staff trained by quarter.

Table 4. Number of facilities and staff sensitized on electronic reporting Period Number of Facilities Trained Number of Personnel Trained

In Kibera South HC and Langata HC, a total of four (4) facility nutritionists were re-inducted on use of the nutrition reporting system both for service and commodity data. Kibera South HC has since been consistently submitting electronic data sets cutting their reporting times by approximately 1 month.

Kariobangi HC, Muranga CRH, Maragua SCH and Embu CRH were also re-trained during this period with a total of four (4) nutritionists being sensitized.

Despite the program having supported successful installation of the nutrition EMR at Memorial AF Hospital and training of the nutritionist on use of the system for both service and commodity data reporting, the program will schedule additional training session in the next quarter to mitigate against the high staff turnover. Target trainees will comprise of nurses and clinical officers from Memorial AF Hospital to assist with provision of services when designated staff are deployed out on official duties.

Facility support for electronic reporting

Lea Toto As an action point from the recent Dagoretti county training, the program conducted a site support visit at Lea Toto Kawangware to follow up on electronic service and commodity reporting status and provide mentorship for commodity management. Lea Toto Kangemi also supports six (6) other facilities (Kibera, Kangemi, Kariobangi, Dandora, Mwiki, and Mukuru) in provision of NACS services.

The following observations were made: • EMR Reporting module: Despite fresh re-installation and re-training of staff in late 2015, Dandora and Dagoretti / Kawangware sites were still not able to generate utilization reports or export monthly data files. • Main store counter requisitions: Discrepancies noted in the stock control module at the main store. • Delivery notes: The delivery note used by the distributors do not conform to the form on the electronic reporting system. • Commodity storage: o The containers have not been o Stacking of FBF above the fabricated into a store room, recommended four levels and hence are not well ventilated buckling was evident o The storage area was clean o Acha mum (RUSF), USAID and commodities staked RUTF and Plump sup were according to type found in stock o No bin cards were available

• Recommendations

Additional OJT especially for nutritionists and M&E staff on use of the nutrition reporting system will be scheduled for the next quarter. In addition, in collaboration with the sub- county teams, DQA activities will also be scheduled to ensure quality and consistency across data reported to both the program and national systems, DHIS.

21

Nutrition information portal

During the quarter, the program identified the lack of a coordinated departmental approach to the portal development as a hindrance in its successful deployment. During subsequent discussions with NDU, the unit identified enrichment of the existing web portal as an essential Rapid Results Initiative (RRI) activity that will guarantee development of a more robust nutrition portal. To ensure user acceptability and ownership, the development process is guided by user feedback and current technological trends. The revision and deployment of content will also take cognizance of current NDU communication/advocacy strategy and guidelines. The portal will also ensure efficiency in information sharing, data utilization, communication and accountability. The current portal, was launched in 2014 and is administered by the monitoring and evaluation section within NDU.

Results from the survey administered by NDU indicated that, 28.6%, 27.1%, 18.6% and 12.9% of the responses were received from NGO, County Govt, UN and National Govt respectively. It was observed that 50.0% and 29.0% of the respondents utilize the portal based on “need” and “very rarely” respectively. 56.7% of the respondents said the portal information is not up- to-date while 68.7% of the respondents indicated that they did not know the portal address.

Some key recommendations that will be considered by the program to guide portal developments are as below:

• Create more awareness on portal existence to potential users (include portal address in all communication and IEC materials) • Ensure availability of comprehensive up to date and relevant TWG, local and international content/information in appropriate format(s) • Provide access for key high priority users e.g. CNCs and SCNOs for them to access summary county information • Improve and simplify visual display/interface taking cognizance of diverse range of audience. • Include updated links to other programmes, partners and stakeholders • Include comprehensive county factsheets, if possible to ward level • Include interactive interfaces for data manipulation and content search • Include summarized information, preferably graphical/visual for consumption by non- technical users. • Develop guidelines for information sharing, upload and download • Develop guidelines/TOR/SOPs for editorial/review committee • Develop multiple access levels for shared portal management to reduce delays noted with moderated portals and ensure currency of information • Prioritize of nutrition relevant content • Encourage advocacy and information sharing by county governments through the portal • Establish links with authentic, relevant social media feeds and websites • Develop an integrated information portal containing information from key collaborating sectors/programs • Align reporting to objectives in the nutrition strategic plan • Include relevant information from academia and research • Include email alerts on addition of new content or materials • Include portal domain suffix as part of MoH staff emails to support awareness and exposure • Benchmark with other stakeholder websites • Assign personnel to run and maintain the website on a continuous basis • Capacity building of the website management team

22

• Ensure portal is highly ranked in popular search engines to ensure inclusion among the top searches listed when users search for nutrition information • Include shared calendars for standardized all-inclusive to events in addition to sharing of meeting notes

III. PROGRAM PROGRESS (Quantitative Impact)

Service Utilization, Commodity Production and Delivery

Nutrition Service Reporting

During the quarter, the program supported a total of 609 health facilities with data management and reporting representing an overall reporting rate of 62.8% (609/970) of target facilities. Overall, there was increased facility reporting of 38.8% from the preceding quarter (609 vs 373). As summary of County reporting rates is highlighted in Annex 3. To ensure improved facility reporting rates in subsequent quarters, the program will continue to engage with CNCs and facility contact persons through provision of feedback reports to facilities in addition to scaling up of electronic reporting and strengthening of internal program commodity and service reporting systems. The program will also seek to promote previously designated “satellite sites” to delivery points to ensure wider reach in provision of NACS. The program is currently in the process of procuring the second batch of 30 additional laptop computers for deployment to high volume facilities.

Some of the data quality challenges observed from facilities include:

• Inconsistency in commodity reporting: not all clients on FBF issued with prescription hence inconsistency when tallying MOH407 vs MOH732

• Inconsistency of summary section vs the actual count for MOH 407A/B

• Errors in reported computations relating to MOH734 for non-EMR sites

• Incomplete variables

• Adherence to standardized unit of issue during reporting

• Inadequate data management support at facility level

Service Utilization

Assessments

Overall client assessments remained relatively similar to preceding quarter with a total of 73,608 assessments recorded. An additional 8,263 client records were in the process of being inputted into the electronic system during compilation of this report. Total number of assessments by County are shown in Annex III (Performance Data Tables).

Newly assessed clients accounted for 54.3% of total assessments. CCC clinics recorded the largest catchment of patients seeking nutrition services at 69.5% (n=55,557). Approximately 4.8% and <2% (n=55,557) of the patients sought services from MCH and Inpatient/Other clinics.

Of the total assessed clients, 73.1% and 26.9% were children and adult clients respectively. Among clients with complete client category data, pregnant and post-natal women comprised 4.9% of the adult population while under 5-year-old children comprised 68.9% of the child

V. PROGRESS ON LINKS TO OTHER USAID PROGRAMS

With ILRI/AVCDP USAID we continue providing technical support in nutrition. With APHIAplus programs Nutrition and Health Program continues to engage with the programs in training of the HCW in NACS, commodity management and facility reporting. With APHIAplus-Imarisha we continue working together in the counties of Samburu and Marsabit. This linkage provided an avenue for scale up of best practices in the counties. In Samburu we collaborated with APHIAplus IMARISHA to conduct ECDEs teachers’ sensitization and MALEZI Bora Activities and provision of TA to the CCC at County referral. In both Samburu and Marsabit, NHPplus is collaborating with APHIAplus Imarisha to build capacity on NACS, IMAM, MIYCN, agri-nutrition and electronic data transmission.

VI. PROGRESS ON LINKS WITH GOK AGENCIES

National level, linkages have been created with Kenya Meteorological Services (KMS). The KMS is providing the program with the National Seasonal forecast for use to downscale and prepare the seasonal contextualized production calendar/planner for the counties. Linkages have been developed with Agriculture Sector Development Support Program (ASDSP) of the MOALF which is the coordinating the seasonal planner and dissemination of the contextualized weather forecast information to the grassroots for use by farmers to improve food production during long rains season.

The program partnered with NDMA in supporting the contextualization of seasonal calendar and in planning capacity building of NDMA field monitors to be used for identifying vulnerable clients in the communities and linking them to various safety net programs. During Food Composition Tables Review workshop by MOH linkages were established with the National Nutrition Labs that are critical in food analysis.

At county level, we have developed linkage and good working relationships with the County governments of Marsabit, Samburu and Tharaka Nithi and Busia. The program is working with the ministries of health and agriculture to foster an integrated approach to addressing malnutrition by strengthening mutisectoral forums, conducting joint capacity building sessions (integrating nutrition, WASH and agri-nutrition) and providing integrated support during national nutrition events. NHPplus will also provide support for government forums advocating for, more resource allocation for nutrition activities. In Busia and Samburu counties, linkages were created with Ministry of Education at ECDE level and Primary schools sensitizing teachers on Vit. A supplementation and growing Vit. A dense value chains with demonstrations in ECDE centres and 4K clubs

A review of the entire work plan activities was done with some dropped or modified along the way. This was prompted by the outcomes of the inception meetings with stakeholders in the counties where the activities needed to be aligned with the county priorities and gaps. The new look also reflects the new Multi-Sectoral Nutrition approach mirrored by USAID for improved nutrition outcomes. Table 8 outlines extracts of activities from the main work plan lined up for Quarter 3.
