RESYST researchers in Kilifi County, Kenya, have been participating in a longstanding project with health managers to better understand the challenges and complexities they face in delivering services. Through this partnership, researchers identified the need to support county health managers to steer and manage health services in the context of substantial political change and have established a new training course, the first of which was held in July 2016.

The course was organised in collaboration with Pwani University and the Department of Public Health in Kenya, and supported by the Initiative to Develop African Research Leaders (IDeAL).
