Nairobi

Kenya

Cancer is the third leading cause of death in Kenya, with 70 percent of diagnoses made in advanced stages. Through its partnership with C/Can, Nairobi aims to improve access to oncological care with support from local and international partners.

Unlocking cancer care with C/Can

Our unique approach empowers Nairobi to assess, plan, and implement sustainable cancer care solutions that scale from the local to the national level.

Uncover the gaps

When a city joins the C/Can network, we start by diagnosing the city’s health system, investigating gaps in the city’s cancer care, and building a foundation for change by bringing local stakeholders together to lead the transformation.

Power the system

We co-create a strategic plan and a programme with each city driven by local priorities. Locally-led projects are executed and monitored to ensure lasting impact. When projects conclude, we support cities to sustain and accelerate their progress.
