Abstract
Neither the NFC necklace nor the necklace with additional voice call reminders in the local dialect directly resulted in an increase in infant immunization timeliness through DTP3, the primary outcome. Still our process outcomes suggest that our culturally symbolic necklace has potential to be an assistive tool in immunization campaigns. Follow-on work will seek to examine whether positive behavior change towards vaccines can be fostered with earlier engagement of this platform beginning in the prenatal stage, under a continuum of care framework.
