Chanjoplus is built to be integrated into Kenya’s national healthcare system, and was created following extensive research with nurses, and volunteers who dispense vaccines and parents.
After working as a vaccination volunteer himself, Oluoch came across irregularities in national vaccination drives that saw thousands of children miss out on their vaccines. Volunteers invent names to increase their quota of vaccines, parents lose their children’s vaccine cards, and healthcare facilities are overwhelmed by paperwork associated with an outdated, manual system that leaves little room for human error.
Chanjoplus is currently in a pilot phase, with volunteers receiving training on the system in Nairobi for their second trial.
