 Introduction
The Kenya Network of Women with AIDS, KENWA, was funded by the Global Fund
since the financing mechanism first started operating in January 2002.
With its US$ 220’875 share of the US$ 137 million approved over
two years by the Global Fund to finance HIV/AIDS activities in Kenya,
KENWA offers counselling, home-based care and psycho-social support in
some of Nairobi’s poorest communities - including Kogongoco, one
of the most deprived slum areas of the city.
KENWA runs six drop-in centres, excluding “headquarters”
in Pangani. The centres serve as information, dissemination and walk-in
counselling centres for the general public and cater mainly to HIV-infected
women as well as orphaned and vulnerable children.
