Outreach Immunization Activities

At the Interdisciplinary Clinical Research Consortium (ICRC), we believe every child deserves a healthy start in life. Immunization is one of the most effective ways to prevent life-threatening diseases, yet many children in Uganda still face barriers in accessing vaccines

Bringing Services Closer to Families

Through our outreach activities, ICRC works hand in hand with local health workers and community leaders to bring immunization services directly to where families live. These sessions take place in villages, schools, markets, and churches, making it easier for parents to protect their children without long journeys to distant health facilities.

Moving Forward

The Interdisciplinary Clinical Research Consortium (ICRC) remains committed to ensuring no child in Uganda is left behind. Each outreach activity brings us closer to achieving equitable immunization coverage and healthier communities.
