Shifo Foundation: Sweden
Shifo is on a giant mission to improve child health by ensuring that every child is registered and followed up to receive life saving vaccines.
We have developed MyChild information and support system to address one of the root causes of child mortality from vaccine preventable diseases. MyChild enables systematic birth registration and follow-up of every single child until they are fully vaccinated, automating national immunisation data collection and supporting delivery of preventive child health services at the point of care.
Having had successfully implemented in the Mukono District of Uganda, we are working to scale MyChild regionally in Uganda and eventually expand to new countries to help address the issue of child mortality.
