The group of medical volunteers who traveled to Kolkata in 2011 with Dr. Bose, who is the pediatrician that visited the center at the same time, issued a calendar of vaccinations that initiated this project.

​

From Spain vaccination records are prepared in order to have a paper record of each child’s immunization schedule. With each dose, nurses will be updated and if children leave the center they can carry the information of their immunizations with them.

​

On 1 February 2013 the Act Award ceremony of the Repsol Foundation took place in Madrid. The association of Amigos de Calcuta was awarded a grant of 6,000 euros for the Immunization Campaign in Kobardanga.

​

On every trip to Kobardanga, the following activities will occur:

​

-Review of the immunization schedule for all children and the doses that remain

-Complete the immunizations recorded lists in Excel

-Train and ensure awareness amongst nurses in Kobardanga.
