Our Impact
Evidence-based projections grounded in comparable Kenyan GBV response models. Every number represents a life we intend to change.
Key Impact Statistics
Projections based on comparable Kenyan SMS-led GBV response models.
The Reality
The Scale of the Problem in Kenya
Kenya faces a significant GBV crisis that existing systems are ill-equipped to address at scale.
of women in Kenya have experienced physical or sexual violence by a partner, according to Kenya Demographic and Health Survey data.
GBV cases in Kenya go unreported due to stigma, language barriers, distrust of institutions, or lack of access to reporting channels.
counties in Kenya — many with limited access to formal GBV support services, making digital and SMS-based solutions critical for coverage.
In Kenya, the GBV crisis is compounded by a lack of formal, accessible reporting infrastructure. The current hotline (1195) handles calls in limited languages and is only accessible via phone call — excluding millions.
Our Evidence Base
Projections Grounded in Reality
Our projected impact figures are derived from analysis of comparable SMS-led GBV response interventions across East Africa.
SMS Intervention Research
Studies of SMS-based health and safety interventions in sub-Saharan Africa show 25–45% increases in help-seeking behaviour when accessible, multilingual channels are introduced.
Triage System Evidence
Automated triage systems in healthcare settings consistently demonstrate 40–60% reductions in time-to-response for critical cases — a model Asha applies to GBV case management.
Multilingual Access
Research on language-inclusive service delivery shows that native-language access increases utilisation rates by 2–3x among non-Swahili-speaking communities in Kenya.
About These Projections
These figures represent evidence-informed projections, not guarantees. They are derived from peer-reviewed literature on comparable interventions in East Africa. Asha will publish verified impact data annually as the platform scales. We hold ourselves to the standard we set.
Transparency
Impact Reports. Annually. Publicly.
As Asha grows, this page will publish annual impact reports with verified data on reporting rates, case resolutions, response times, and platform reach.
We are in the pre-launch phase. When the platform goes live, every metric that matters will be tracked, reported, and published — because accountability is not optional for us.
What We Will Publish:
- Total reports received (anonymised, aggregated)
- Case resolution rates and timelines
- Geographic hotspot mapping
- Average response time by case category
- Police responsiveness metrics (OB resolution rates)
- Financial statements and donor reports
