Bicycles save lives in Jilikul District

In Yangiobod Village, Nuri-Vaksh Jamoat of Jilikul District, where 4,582 households settled 2 to 5 kilometers away from the rural health center, bicycles are saving the lives of children.

The members bought two bicycles for 920 Somoni from the local market and are planning to buy a third one. These women are also thinking to get an infant & pediatric scale and meter.

Nigina Azizova, a pediatrician of the rural health center of Yangiobod Village and the leader of the women’s group “Shifo”, says that together we can change our approach for the good of our children by transporting our health workers to the community.
