We conducted the camp with support from UNFPA and in collaboration with Amref Kenya, Garissa County Government and Office of the Women Representative Garissa County. Other partners included Mpesa Foundation, Flying Doctors Society, Beyond Zero, Iftiin Fm and Kulmiye Fm. The camp aimed to provide essential medical services to women suffering from obstetric fistulas. A total of 108 patients were screened at the sub-counties, and 273 patients were screened at the county referral hospital during the camp. The camp had several significant impacts on the local community. Beyond the over 30 women whose dignity was restored directly, the camp touched several homes and families indirectly
