The Kenya Medical Practitioners, Pharmacists and Dentists Union (KMPDU) has initiated talks with the government to negotiate a new four-year Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA) for doctors, with the goal of reaching a deal by December 2026. The government and KMPDU will begin discussions on October 26 in Mombasa, following the Ministry of Health's submission of a counter-proposal to the union's demands in August.
