In this episode, we have a short radio drama in Samburu. The drama covers the relevant preparations for a new child by the parents, ranging from budgeting for expenses to scheduling ANC visits during pregnancy.

This radio drama was used in the Nkaing’onisho campaign. This is a 5-year project (2016-2020) funded by USAID. The goal is to provide enhanced access and utilization of quality Family Planning, Reproductive, Maternal, Newborn, Child and Adolescent Health (FP/RMNCAH), Nutrition and WASH services in 2 counties (Samburu & Turkana) in Kenya.

This project was implemented in partnership with Africa Medical Research Foundation (AMREF), Communities Health Africa Trust (CHAT), The Inter-Religious Council of Kenya (IRCK), Centre for Behaviour Change and Communication (CBCC).

Nkaing’onisho means hero in Samburu Language.
