A new integrated learning and therapy centre for children with autism and other special needs is being developed in Nairobi to expand access to specialised education.
The Mali Integrated School in Karen will combine education, therapy, sports, technology, arts and caregiver support for children with autism and developmental challenges.
Supporters say it could become one of the first facilities of its kind in East and Central Africa.
