About The Event
Jivika’s primary focus is on delivering high-quality medical care and immunisation services. We made sure that 2.5+ million people in over 40+ districts across 6 states received their vaccinations safely by following stringent standards and appropriate criteria. This includes upholding adequate sanitization, maintaining sufficient social distance, maintaining fully furnished AEFI kits, etc. In this event, a wide range of healthcare industry specialists, including those from the government and private sectors, non-governmental organizations, donor organizations, community-based organizations, and academics, were present. The main goal was to promote discussion, encourage the exchange of ideas, and address the essential components of primary healthcare programs. The workshop agenda was developed to include a variety of events, including panel discussions, insightful expert opinions, the launch of a new book, and a photo exhibition.
