The  prevalence  of  chronic  non-communicable  diseases  such  as  diabetes,  cardiovascular  diseases  and  cancers  has  been  on  the  increase  in  Kenya  in  the  recent  past.  This  has  been  occasioned  by  changes  in  social  and  demographic situation in the country. The life expectancy... in the country is improving, while the country is developing at a rapid pace. This has resulted in  people  living  more  years  and  at  the  time  adopting  lifestyles  that  have  negative impacts on their health. This increase in diabetes and other non-communicable diseases has given rise to a double burden of communicable and non-communicable diseases in Kenya

The plan focuses on improving access to clean water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH), strengthening disease surveillance, enhancing ca...se management, and implementing oral cholera vaccination (OCV) in high-risk areas. It emphasizes multi-sectoral collaboration, involving government agencies, NGOs, and local communities to ensure a sustainable response. Key interventions include community engagement, improved health services, and better outbreak preparedness, aiming for long-term cholera elimination in Uganda.

The Ministry of Health (MOH) and Minist...ry of Agriculture, Livestock, Fisheries & Blue Economy (MALF) recognized antimicrobial resistance as a priority following findings from status reports and studies from Ministries, Departments, Agencies and Stakeholders.
