Vaccination Heroes

We are proud to dedicate this page to partners of AP that are mobilizing vulnerable people to get vaccinated against COVID-19 in four different countries. These heroes are from the Kangemi Advocacy Self-Help Group in Nairobi, Kenya; the Gulu Disabled Persons Union in Gulu, Uganda; Women Advocacy Project in Harare, Zimbabwe; and Subornogram in Narayanganj, Bangladesh. Armed with campaign t-shirts and flyers, these dedicated advocates have helped almost 2,700 individuals get the jab since October. This page also carries photos of volunteers from a highly successful campaign by our partner in Midwest Nepal, Backward Society Education (BASE) to bring down the level of infection in 60 remote Tharu villages last year. Click here for more information about the Kenyan campaign. Stay tuned for more photos as the campaigns continue!
