Impact of implementing digital enabled interventions for community health workers on maternal, newborn and child health in Kisumu County

This was a quasi-experimental study that employed a mixed-methods approach, including a household survey and a community health volunteers' survey, to assess the impact of the Digitally Enabled, Equipped, Supervised, and Compensated (DESC) enabled community health program on key maternal, newborn, and child health outcomes in Kisumu County. The study was conducted among women aged 18-49 who were currently pregnant or who had a live birth in the last 18 months, caregivers of children under 2 years of age, and community health volunteers. The second component was the community health volunteers survey, which aimed to document experiences of use of digital platforms as well as their motivation and job satisfaction.
