SECURE Health Programme – Kenya
1 October 2014
The use of rigorous data and research evidence can help improve health outcomes and reduce the high disease burden in Africa by informing formulation of robust policies and implementation plans, and design of effective health interventions. However, utilisation of evidence in decision-making processes in the health sector is limited in due to bottlenecks that operate at individual, system and institutional levels.
