Human Management and Leadership Organization (HMLO) is a national, non-governmental, and non-profit civil society organization established in December 2020 under the Ministry of Economy of Afghanistan. Headquartered in Kabul, HMLO aims to empower Afghanistan’s war-affected communities by providing quality social services to the most marginalized groups. Founded by a group of compassionate nationalists, the organization envisions a society enriched with civility, tolerance, and respect for rights. Initially engaging in voluntary efforts, HMLO evolved into a structured entity conducting impactful interventions in education, health, women and youth empowerment, governance, emergency response, and human rights. Its initiatives prioritize capacity building and service delivery, ensuring local involvement at the grassroots level. With partnerships with USAID, WHO, UN-WOMEN, and various Afghan ministries, HMLO continues to address the needs of poverty-stricken communities while fostering peace, development, and inclusivity across Afghan society.

The project aims to reduce the risk of vaccine-preventable diseases among returnee populations through immunization services delivered by Mobile Health Teams (MHTs). The Vaccinator ensures effective administration of vaccines and contributes to overall public health improvement in the target community.
