In the Khojbal Village of Gujarat’s Bharuch district, health interventions form an integral pillar of Project Tarang, embedded within the school and community ecosystem. The programme recognises the strong link between health, nutrition, and learning outcomes.
Key health initiatives include:
Monthly Health Camps
Regular camps conducted at the school and community level with medical specialists, enabling early identification of common and chronic health conditions.
Comprehensive Health Screenings
Screening for anaemia, undernutrition, BMI, eye health, blood sugar, and general health, followed by counselling, supplementation, and referrals where required.
Referral and Transportation Support
Structured referral pathways to district hospitals, supported by organised transportation to ensure timely access to secondary and tertiary healthcare.
Health Cards and Follow-up
Individual health cards to track screening results, referrals, and follow-up care, enabling continuity and monitoring over time.
Community Health Awareness
Nutrition, hygiene, menstrual health, and preventive healthcare sessions conducted with frontline workers to improve health-seeking behaviour and treatment adherence.
Through this integrated approach, Project Tarang has reached hundreds of community members, demonstrating strong participation, high follow-up, and improved preventive care uptake.
