Factors associated with facility childbirth and skilled birth attendance in Migori County, Kenya and the effect of Lwala Community Alliance intervention: a cross-sectional assessment from the 2019 and 2021 Lwala household surveys
We provide the first quasi-experimental evidence that Lwala interventions are significantly improving SBA which may inform related initiatives in similar settings. The household-survey data provides a baseline for continued evaluation of Lwala programs, and the breakdown by ward allows for development of specific programmatic targets.
