President William Ruto meeting with GKSD Group at State House Nairobi on September 8th 2026

At State House Nairobi, signed a major partnership with the Government of Italy and GKSD Group that will deliver 15 new hospitals.

Under this partnership, we will build 13 Level 5 county referral hospitals and 2 Level 6 national teaching and referral hospitals in 15 counties.

Kenya currently has 12 hospital beds per 10,000 people against the World Health Organisation benchmark of 25.

These new facilities will significantly expand our hospital capacity, bring specialised medical services closer to communities, and accelerate our journey towards Universal Health Coverage.

These projects, being implemented under Italy’s Mattei Plan for Africa, will radically transform the lives of our people.
