Research Translation: Adapts WHO's STEADI (Stopping Elderly Accidents, Deaths & Injuries) toolkit for low-resource Kenyan settings. Trains community health workers to conduct comprehensive home hazard assessments, lead group balance exercises, and provide low-cost assistive devices.

Innovation: Locally fabricated balance assessment tools using available materials; peer-led "Walk Strong" exercise groups; home modification kits using recycled materials; mobile-based fall incident reporting system.

Research Translation: Implements Cognitive Stimulation Therapy (CST) protocols proven to slow cognitive decline by 20-30%. Establishes dementia care navigation services that guide families through diagnosis, care planning, and support resources.

Innovation: Culturally adapted CST materials in local dialects; mobile-based caregiver support groups and training; memory screening integrated into routine health visits; "dementia-friendly community" certification program.

Research Translation: Translates nutritional epidemiology findings into practical, affordable meal plans optimized for older adults' metabolic needs. Establishes community-based "food innovation groups" that produce fortified complementary foods using locally available ingredients.

Innovation: Locally sourced, shelf-stable nutrient-dense sachets (millet-iron, amaranth-zinc blends); intergenerational cooking workshops; bio-intensive kitchen gardens designed for limited mobility; bulk buying cooperatives.

Research Translation: Adapts evidence-based self-management programs for hypertension, diabetes, arthritis, and respiratory conditions to local contexts. Peer-led workshops on medication adherence, symptom tracking, and lifestyle modification.

Innovation: Paper-based symptom trackers with pictorial guides for low-literacy participants; integration with community health promoters for follow-up; simplified treatment algorithms for CHWs; peer support circles organized by condition.

Research Translation: Implements social prescribing models where healthcare providers prescribe non-clinical interventions: community activities, mentoring programs, skill-sharing with youth, and participation in cultural events.

Innovation: "Grandparent-Grandchild Tech Buddies" program bridging digital divide; community asset mapping to identify social resources; "Elder Wisdom" oral history project; community navigators who connect elders to local activities.

Research Translation: Translates epidemiological findings on elder abuse prevalence and risk factors into community-based prevention strategies. Trains elders, families, and community leaders to recognize, report, and respond to abuse (financial, physical, emotional, neglect).

Innovation: Paralegal training for older adults; community-based elder protection committees; mobile-based anonymous reporting hotline; integration with county social protection systems; will-writing and asset protection workshops.

Research Translation: Implements community-based hearing and vision screening protocols adapted from WHO guidelines. Provides low-cost assistive devices and trains older adults in their use and maintenance.

Innovation: Peer hearing aid maintenance workshops; "Vision Champions" trained to conduct basic eye screenings; refurbished eyeglasses distribution program; partnerships with local optometry schools for outreach clinics; sensory-friendly home modifications.
