As a case of translating a healthcare intervention from randomized controlled trial to public health program, Kenya's voluntary male medical circumcision (VMMC) program offers an example of demand generation through active engagement with the population and reducing barriers to uptake. It illustrates various means by which the Kenyan leadership focused on demand generation which have value both domestically and internationally to healthcare leaders. Community and public engagement must start early and continue focused on key stakeholders and spokespersons. Barriers including cost, time, culture, and personal preference must be identified and addressed. This engagement and overall program must constantly be re-evaluated and shaped iteratively based on data.
