Elections are an important part of democracy — but they should never compromise a child’s safety, dignity or wellbeing. We urge all actors to keep children out of political spaces; including rallies, campaign activities & political advertising. #InvestInUGchildren
Today, together with @UHRC_UGANDA, @niceugorg and @ucrnn, @UNICEFUganda called for urgent action to keep children safe during Uganda’s election period. No election should ever expose children to harm. #ChildProtectionUG #InvestInUGChildren

Malaria is a thief, stealing our children's health and futures. But we have a weapon: a safe, effective, and FREE vaccine. The real question is, is your child upto date with their schedule? Don't let your child become another statistic. #EndMalaria #VaccinesWork
