  2. Background Information

Human rights and gender-related barriers to health have long blocked national responses to HIV, TB and malaria, including stigma and discrimination; gender inequality and violence; punitive practices, policies, and laws; and social and economic inequality. These barriers are pervasive and interfere across the prevention and treatment continuum, keeping key and vulnerable populations away from primary healthcare services, including HIV, TB and malaria services.

Kenya has a strong Constitution and laws, policies and human rights bodies that are intended to uphold the rights of people living with HIV and key and vulnerable populations. Several bodies have also been created to address human rights violations, including the Kenya National Commission on Human Rights and the National Gender and Equality Commission, which were established under the Kenyan Constitution to investigate and provide redress for human rights violations. However, implementation and enforcement of the legal framework remain weak or inconsistent and is impeded by barriers to accessing justice. Punitive laws that discriminate against key populations and criminalize HIV exposure and transmission. Additionally, there is significantly less programming specific to removing human rights-related barriers to TB and malaria services than there is for HIV services, although many programs concurrently address HIV and TB.

High levels of stigma and discrimination continue to undermine national responses. Stigma involves negative attitudes as well as behaviours and judgments, often driven by fear or ignorance. Discrimination involves unfair treatment, laws and policies and is a violation of international human rights law. Stigma and discrimination can take many forms, including disparaging attitudes, sub-standard treatment and denial of treatment, and reduce people’s uptake of and retention in prevention and treatment.

In the context of health care, many laws, policies and practices impede effective responses. These include: (a) lack of informed consent and confidentiality; (b) mandatory testing; (c) demands for bribes or high fees; (d) policies allowing for discriminatory treatment; (e) lack of enforcement of anti-discriminatory and other protective laws; and (f) laws requiring health care providers to report certain groups to law enforcement. Laws and policies can also limit access to HIV and sexual and reproductive health services for adolescents and young people (e.g., age-of-consent laws and parental consent requirements). Spousal consent laws further limit service access for women and girls.

Programmes that are designed to reduce human rights and gender-related barriers to services are comprehensive when the right programs are implemented for the right people in the right combination at the right level of investment to remove such barriers and increase access to services.

In regard to assessing county-level progress, the scorecards will be used to assess how well counties are implementing human rights and gender-responsive approaches to HIV, TB, and malaria. By providing a standardized assessment tool, the scorecards will help identify gaps and areas where improvements are needed. In addition, the scorecards will also help identify priority areas where human rights and gender considerations need to be addressed in order to improve disease control and elimination efforts. For example, if the scorecard reveals that stigma and discrimination against people living with HIV are prevalent in a county, efforts can be made to address this issue and ensure that all individuals receive equal access to care and treatment. The scorecards will also help improve accountability for human rights and gender-responsive approaches. By publicly sharing the results of the scorecards, governments and stakeholders can be held accountable for their progress and commitments. The scorecards will promote collaboration among different sectors and stakeholders involved in disease control and elimination efforts. By highlighting the importance of human rights and gender considerations, the scorecards can encourage collaboration between health, human rights, and gender equality advocates.

Overall, the national human rights and gender scorecards for HIV, TB, and malaria is a valuable tool for assessing progress and identifying priority areas for improving human rights and gender equality in disease control and elimination efforts.

It is on these bases, that the Kenya Red Cross Society (KRCS) was selected to manage Global Fund HIV grant as a non-state Principal Recipient (PR) for the Global Fund HIV Grant for the period between July 2021 and June 2024. The goal of the grant is to contribute to the attainment of universal health coverage through comprehensive HIV prevention, treatment, and care for all people in Kenya with the objectives of reducing new HIV infections by 75%, reduce AIDs related mortality by 50%, and reduce HIV related stigma and discrimination to less than 25%.

Therefore, the Kenya Red Cross Society is seeking to recruit a qualified consultancy firm to conduct targeted study using the national human rights and gender (HRG) scorecards for HIV, TB and malaria focusing on KPs, PLHIVs AYPs and TB/DRTB and malaria-affected populations to share their experiences in accessing health services.

The International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement, born of a desire to bring assistance without discrimination to the wounded on the battlefield, endeavours, in its international and national capacity, to prevent and alleviate human suffering wherever it may be found. Its purpose is to protect life and health and ensure respect for the human being. It promotes mutual understanding, friendship, co-operation and lasting peace amongst all people.

It makes no discrimination as to nationality, race, religious beliefs, class or political opinions. It endeavours to relieve the suffering of individuals, being guided solely by their needs, and to give priority to the most urgent cases of distress.

In order to continue to enjoy the confidence of all, the Movement may not take sides in hostilities or engage at any time in controversies of a political, racial, religious or ideological nature.

The Movement is Independent. While the National Societies are auxiliaries in the humanitarian services of their governments and subject to the laws of their respective countries, they must always maintain their autonomy so that they are able at all time to act in accordance with the principles of the Movement.

On 24th June 1859, the armies of imperial Austria and the Franco-Sardinian alliance fought a daylong battle near the northern Italian village of Solferino. The casualties were heavy - some 40,000 dead, wounded or missing. Military medical services at the time were virtually non-existent; as a result there was great suffering and many of the wounded dies for lack of care. The injured were brought to the surrounding villages for whatever treatment they could get. In the church at Castiglione, a young Swiss called Henry Dunant, horrified by the agony of the soldiers, began to organize help with the aid of the local people.

Returning home to Geneva, still haunted by what he had seen, he wrote a book about his experience.''A Memory of Solferino'', published in 1862, was acclaimed throughout Europe. In it, Dunant put forward an idea for supplementing army medical services in times of war. This would be done through national relief Societies which, in peacetime, would train their voluntary members for this work. Dunant also proposed that the wounded, and all those attending them, should be regarded as neutral, even on the battlefield.

To help promote the aims of the book, four citizens of Geneva - Gustave Moynier, who was President of the Geneva Public Welfare Society, General Guillaume-Henri Dufour, Dr. Louis Appia and Dr.Theodore Maunoir - joined Dunant in setting up the ''International Committee for Relief to the Wounded'', which later became the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC). In response to an invitation from the International Committee, specialists from 16 countries met in Geneva in October 1863. They adopted ten resolutions that made up the founding charter of the Red Cross, defining the functions and working methods of the Committees for the Relief of the Wounded which Dunant had proposed.
