Mid this year 2012, WAYAN received a grant from PHI(Public Health Insitute) to educate the community at large on the correct, proper use of Misoprostol.This initiative will improve women’s health by enhancing the capacity of leaders from a range of diverse community-based organizations in Kenya  to provide the most up-to-date information about the correct uses of Misoprostol, and support them in developing concrete strategies and proposals to empower women to access safe and effective use of Misoprostol within their communities.

 PHI will improve sexual and reproductive health outcomes and reduce rates of maternal morbidity and mortality by increasing access to safer and more effective services and
building on existing efforts by other organizations.

We are glad to be part of this initiative to help reduce maternal mortality among young women. this is in line with MDG 5( Improve Maternal Health)  On 23rd June 2012, WAYAN held its fist sensitization meeting with 50 young people aged 18-28 in Huruma.

We will share the whole report.
