Abstract :Mountainous regions in the world are vulnerable to seasonal movements of people from one region to another, which could make or mar the health care of young school children. When parents move from the mountainous regions in search of greener pastures in major cities, the children that are left behind could suffer exclusion from timely vaccinations that could protect them from stressful life events. This study presents the impacts of parental migration on the health care of school children in a mountain community in Nigeria. The sample of the study comprises 28 school-aged children purposefully selected in a mountain learning ecology in Nigeria. The study projects the need for a participatory health care system for school children in global mountain communities to eradicate diseases that are preventable by vaccines by the year 2021.
