The Ohangwena medical tour, school wellness and community outreach campaign in Namibia successfully reached 513 participants with health screening, treatment, education, and referral services from September 8 to 11, 2026. The campaign, conducted at four sites, aimed to bring essential healthcare services closer to communities and schools, especially in areas where access to healthcare and health information is limited.
Despite facing challenges such as technical delays, low learner turnout, windy conditions, and transport issues, the campaign managed to identify several health concerns and referred 14 participants to hospitals for further medical attention.
