This event was held on the 29 September 2016 and brought together a wide range of stakeholders – from government, communities, the health service, non-governmental organizations, research institutes and universities, and funders – to share learning on quality improvement. It aimed to strengthen knowledge about how these methods can be applied at the community level. During the symposium different speakers shared information on the success of Kenya's community health programme and some of the ways that quality improvement can help tackle challenges that are being faced in the country.
