Our Programs
Six Mandates for Healthcare Accountability
HSCR-Watch advances healthcare accountability across Kenya through six core mandates from empowering patients to know their rights, to working with governments and institutions to build a healthcare system that is transparent, ethical, and answerable to the communities it serves.
Patient Rights Education & Community Empowerment
Community-driven education to ensure patients understand their rights, navigate the health system with confidence, and demand quality care. Through partnerships with local leaders and health facilities, we empower citizens to become active participants in their own healthcare journey.
- Community health education programs
- Public awareness campaigns on patient rights
- Legal literacy workshops for healthcare consumers
Ethical Healthcare & Patient Safety Advocacy
We investigate and advocate against medical malpractice, unethical billing practices, and denial of care. Our team works to establish accountability mechanisms that protect patients from exploitation and ensure healthcare providers uphold the highest ethical standards.
- Medical malpractice investigations
- Consumer health rights protection
- Healthcare provider accountability mechanisms
Research, Data & AI for Health Governance
Leveraging research, data analytics, and artificial intelligence to strengthen health system governance, track resource allocation, and uncover systemic gaps. Our data-driven approach enables evidence-based advocacy and smarter policy interventions.
- Health systems research and analysis
- Data-driven policy recommendations
- AI-powered accountability innovations
Model Ward / Village Health Facilities
We pilot and promote model public health facilities that exemplify transparency, cleanliness, and patient dignity. These demonstration sites serve as replicable standards for what every Kenyan community should expect from its local health center.
- Facility assessment and grading
- Transparency and cleanliness standards
- Replication of best practices across facilities
Citizen-Led Accountability & Social Audits
Equipping communities to monitor health services and hold duty-bearers accountable through participatory social audits, community scorecards, and budget tracking. Citizens become the first line of defense against healthcare system failures.
- Social audits of health facilities
- Community scorecards for service quality

Generating evidence and building coalitions to influence health policy at the county and national levels. Through strategic partnerships with government, civil society, and development partners, we drive systemic reform for lasting impact.
