The Partnership for African Social and Governance Research (PASGR) in collaboration with the African Institute for Health and Development (AIHD) implemented the project, “Research- Policy Community (Utafiti Sera) on social protection in Kenya”. Utafiti Sera represents a community of researchers and policy actors that work together to ensure that appropriate policy actions and uptake occur either through programs, legislations, policies, or administrative and other actions around an issue for which research has provided evidence, in this case, social protection in Kenya. The main goal of this initiative was to build and sustain a vibrant
community of researchers, policymakers, and practitioners who then advocate for evidence-based policy uptake.
