As the world shifts from 'emergency response' to 'building resilience' we are moving the Oxygen and Vaccine Data CoLabs into their next phases.
To support this, the COVIDaction programme is ending and the two CoLabs are moving under the @FuturesCoLab platform.

UNICEF, along with @COVIDactionTech and @FCDOResearch, is driving the innovation of a more resilient oxygen concentrator.
Our teams were in Tanzania last week to listen to the experiences of health staff, which will now be shared with industry. Read more: uni.cf/3x1n5Jo

"Every health facility that cares for in-patients must have #oxygen."
This is our new partner @FREO2_AU, working to reduce the number of deaths of babies and children suffering from pneumonia or hypoxia in low-and-middle-income countries.

Dr Hosiana Samuel read out the names of ten babies, born unable to breathe at a health centre in Karatu. These babies were treated with FREO2 #oxygen and can now live, breathe and thrive.

When FREO2 and @COVIDactionTech visited Mang’ola Health Centre, all available FREO2 #oxygen was being delivered to babies suffering with #hypoxia. As soon as FREO2’s O2 systems were installed, they treated 2 premature babies & have gone on to treat over 50 children since February

The MoH were excited to hear that @FREO2_AU go beyond basic provision by providing a full wrap around service. This is much needed at the remote district level where there are currently fewer resources. People now have access to treatment where they are. #oxygenaccess

This pilot has created a Tanzanian business for Tanzanians. It employs local workers, training them as biomed engineers, building capacity, and changing lives! đź› đź’Ş #o2aas #oxygencolab

The Oxygen CoLab is in Tanzania. Wow. Dr Hosiana Samuel at a health centre in Karatu read out 10 names. These were all new born babies who were unable to breathe. Now they’re thriving thanks to the oxygen concentrator’s supplied by our grantees @FREO2_AU

The remaining option is to be sent to a referral hospital. Many babies do not survive the journey. Oxygen concentrators supplied by @FREO2_AU enable these babies to live, survive, and thrive.
