Employees from the World Health Organization's Country Office introduced the initial version of the educational gaming module "Immune Patrol" in Turkmen language to Turkmenistan's Ministries of Health and Education. Following consultations with experts, plans were outlined to create a roadmap for piloting the game in secondary schools across the country. "Immune Patrol" is designed as a digital educational tool within existing school health programs, developed by the WHO Regional Office for Europe specifically for students aged 10-12 years. The initiative aims to enhance health education through interactive gameplay, focusing on promoting vaccination awareness and health literacy among young learners.
