We operate a network of rural clinics, leverage technology for better care, and conduct research to improve healthcare delivery for all.
Afya Research Africa (ARA) was established in Kenya in 2009 initially as a centre of research/evidence that would build a baseline for programs that create access to medical care. Recognizing the significant challenges faced by underserved poor rural populations in accessing healthcare services, we transitioned into action in 2013. Our key mandate was; to provide affordable and nearby primary healthcare services to rural communities, to improve their health outcomes and lives.
Ubuntu-Afya Kiosks are a network of rural healthcare centres designed to bring essential healthcare services closer to Kenyan communities. We believe that everyone deserves access to quality care, regardless of location or financial limitations.
Ubuntu-Afya Kiosks are a beacon of hope for a healthier future in rural Kenya.
At ARA, we believe technology has the power to revolutionize healthcare access and delivery. This is why we’ve developed a locally appropriate health information and clinic management system, STONE-HMIS®.
STONE-HMIS® is a game changer in data health reporting.
At ARA, we understand the power of evidence-based practice. That’s why we prioritize research to inform our healthcare interventions, improve healthcare delivery across Kenya, and contribute to a wider body of knowledge.
By investing in research, we’re building a future where healthcare decisions are guided by evidence, not just assumptions.
We collaborate with a diverse range of organizations, individuals, and communities who share our passion for creating accessible healthcare for all.
