Key milestones include the successful rollout of the Electronic Immunization Registry (EIR), capacity building for health workers, and other innovative efforts that are strengthening the national health system. The journey covers visits to provinces, schools, and key meetings with health officials and advocates, offering real-world examples of how digital tools are being used to improve healthcare access and delivery.
