"content": "February to raise awareness among the public and reduce stigma. Indeed, this year several counties commemorated the day. (iv) Sensitisation on epilepsy through strategic partnerships with patient groups, media, academia, county governments and other non-governmental organisations like the Kenya Association of Welfare for People with Epilepsy. In conclusion, prevention and control of epilepsy has already been integrated into the Kenya Health Policy as one of the priority areas for the Ministry. Further, the Ministry has developed a National Strategy for Prevention and Control of NCDs, including epilepsy, which outlines priority activities for the period between 2021/2022 and 2025/2026. These activities include health system strengthening, advocacy, research and surveillance, partnership, and advocacy on epilepsy. There is a designated focal person to handle matters related to epilepsy at the Division of Non-Communicable Diseases at the Ministry. We do, however, request for increased financial support to enhance prevention and control activities for epilepsy."
