To date much of the focus has been on support to those affected by HIV and working with vulnerable youth. GOAL implements its work via local partners and with the MoH in selected health facilities in informal settlements across the city.
The population of Nairobi is increasing dramatically primarily in the informal settlements as people leave the rural areas in increasing numbers due to the increasing drought of recent years and rising food prices.
