Kenya NTD Master Plan (2023 - 2027)

The NTD Master Plan 2023 – 2027 is a comprehensive multi-year plan which provides strategic direction and guidance to all partners in the health and related sectors (education, agriculture, water, and sanitation) on the control, and elimination and eventual eradication of all NTDs that are relevant in Kenya. 

It will also be used as a management and coordination tool by the Ministry of Health, counties, and partners to support one another and hold each other accountable. The Master Plan is well aligned to the Kenya Health Policy 2014 – 2030, the 2012 London Declaration on NTDs, WHO Ending the neglect to attain the Sustainable Development Goals – A road map for Neglected Tropical Diseases 2021 – 2030. 

The development of the NTD Master Plan 2023-2027 was a culmination of various initiatives including meetings, workshops to comprehensively review the 2nd Kenya National Strategic Plan for Control of NTD 2016-2020 to document successes, lessons learned and challenges and develop content for the new Master Plan. This was achieved through desk review of NTD documents and reports, convening review meetings with NTD focal points and convening workshops with key stakeholders, including donors, implementing partners and focus counties.
