Mothers like Aisha know that the benefits of vaccination far outweigh any discomfort from the jab. From oral polio vaccine to vaccines against meningitis, measles and other childhood diseases, we remain committed until every child is fully protected.

Funding cuts by numerous donor countries will limit UNICEF’s ability to reach millions of children in dire need. UNICEF implores all donors to continue to fund critical aid programs for the world’s children. We cannot fail them now.👇

At #RIHF2025, @KSRelief_EN allocated $200M to @UNICEF as part of Saudi Arabia’s $500M pledge to the Global Polio Eradication Initiative. This historic commitment will help vaccinate 370 million children annually over the next five years, prevent paralysis, and strengthen health

Days after the #MaiduguriFlood, @BornoGovt has declared a #cholera outbreak in the state. With support from @CanadaDev and @gavi, UNICEF has distributed 300,000 doses of cholera vaccines to protect vulnerable children and their families who have been displaced by the floods.

Hadiza and Hannatu made history today! The 12 years old girls are the first to be vaccinated against cervical cancer as Borno State launched the #HPV vaccine today. The #HPV vaccine preserves the right of children and adolescent girls to life and good health. #ForEveryChild
