The immunity charm comprises colored beads, with each bead being code for a specific vaccine. On every vaccine, doctors add the corresponding bead to the bracelet, creating a data bank on the child's wrist.

Strong traditional biases and wide spread illiteracy were the main hurdles. The Immunity Charm takes care of both as it is rooted in tradition and requires no reading or writing on the part of the parents. And empowers doctors in Afghanistan with real usable information.

Doctors and Healthcare professionals were given their own Immunity Charm Kits and required just a one hour training program.

With each kit a doctor is equipped to take care of 50 children's Immunization records.

In the pilot programme, we have begun in Kabul district with 10 kits, which brings 500 children under monitoring. Seeing the success of the programme, the Immunity Charm is being extended to other provinces.

The immunity charm itself comprises colored beads, with each bead being code for a specific vaccine. On every vaccine, doctors add the corresponding bead to the bracelet.

Afghanistan's vaccination completion rate is just 50%, and infant mortality rate is 101 out of every 1000 live births.

As the Immunity Charm spreads across various Afghan provinces, it helps thousands of infants complete their vaccination schedule.

This is a unique case of collecting data and then using that same data as incentive!
