Kenya is an East-African country with a steadily growing economy. However, 20% of the Kenyan population lives below the poverty line of 1.25 USD per day and 40% survives with less than 2 USD per day. This part of the population depends on public facilities, like public schools and hospitals – in contrary to the middle class which is increasingly able to use private institutions.Unfortunately, the quality of public institutions and services is often below standard. As a result, 16% of the children are not making use of primary education and more than half of the children never enroll in secondary school. The latter is mainly caused by the fact that many primary school pupils underperform. They attain marks of below 250 in their final exams, which is the reason they are not admitted to any high school. Research shows that most teachers and principals mention overcrowded classes and inadequate facilities as a direct cause for the poor performances.Apart from that, a large part of the population does not receive adequate health care. Most of the clinics in rural areas lack the necessary equipment. Because often drugs and doctors are unavailable, many patients are not able to receive proper treatment.
