Kenya has long followed a strategy of pluralism in the health sector, allowing a large and diverse non-government health sector to develop. This report documents the contributions of this non-government sector to some of Kenya’s health goals. The potential exists for much higher levels of contribution from the non-governmental sector. This requires collaboration between the public and private sectors in identifying national public health priorities and in putting in place a framework for achieving those goals.
