Disability assessment camps

In December 2020,  the first screening camps were organised COVID-prove, in small groups and in the open air,  in the new municipalities of batch 1.  This time the local government took responsibility for the organisation.

In the period December- January 2021 a total of 380 health workers are being trained by the staff of Medic Mobile in the use of mobile phones for data collection and sending messages on Ante and Post Natal Check Ups. 

Karuna  has been qualified as top organisation by Kinder, the newly founded platform for effective giving. We are selected as Kinders accessible health care appeal.

The impact study of the DPRP has started with the base line survey. Interviews are implemented by researchers from our partner organisation Solutions in Nepal in close cooperation with dr Pierre Pratley from the Royal Tropical Institute Amsterdam. First results are expected in March 2021.

The figures on COVID-19 are still spiking and put high pressure on society in Nepal with repeated lock-down, an overburdened care system and major sources of revenues from tourism and the workforce abroad being reduced to a minimum.
