CHAPS
has developed local and international networks.
Locally, the puppetry groups have formed five regional networks
based in
the North Rift,
Western Kenya,
Nairobi,
Mountain Kenya and
the Coast regions respectively.
CHAPS maintains close links
with local community development organizations
especially those with programmes similar to FPPS'. These include
the Slums Information Development and Assistance Resource
Centre (SIDAREC),
Programme for Appropriate Technology in Health (PATH),
GOAL-Kenya and Family Planning Association of Kenya
(FPAK) among others. Our training team has
been involved in establishing puppetry programmes in refugee
camps in northern Kenya and in Kigoma, Tanzania, Somaliland
and Eritrea.
In addition, CHAPS has collaborated
with international organizations such as UNICEF
- Somali, UNFPA, Plan International, Pathfinder, Medicines
Sans Frontiers (MSF), Lutheran Federation
and Transparency International
(TI-Kenya) among others. |
