A historic milestone for Uganda and the world! Uganda is leading the largest #malaria vaccine rollout globally, making it the 14th antigen in the country’s Routine Immunization Program. This is a game-changer in the fight against malaria, which remains one of the leading causes of illness and death among children. UNICEF is proud to support Ministry of Health-Uganda in ensuring every eligible child receives this life-saving vaccine. Alongside other malaria prevention efforts, this rollout will help protect more children and save countless lives.

This earthquake is another brutal blow to children in Myanmar, many of whom are already living through conflict, displacement and deprivation. According to official figures, more than 1,600 people have been killed and over 3,400 injured—many of them children. Homes, schools, hospitals, and critical infrastructure have sustained severe damage. Landslides and collapsed roads have left many communities without electricity and mobile connectivity. Many families already surviving in fragile conditions now face even greater hardship, with limited access to safe water, healthcare and shelter. As part of its initial response, UNICEF is mobilizing 80 metric tons of life-saving supplies, including health kits, medical supplies, tents, and hygiene kits such as soap, sanitary pads, and disinfectants, for immediate delivery to children and families in desperate need. “Children in Myanmar are enduring a crisis on top of a crisis. UNICEF is scaling up our life-saving work, and the international community is responding, but more resources are urgently needed to save and protect the lives of children and their families. At the same time, we need safe, rapid and unhindered humanitarian access to affected areas so we can assist those in desperate need.” - UNICEF Executive Director Catherine Russell.

The devastation caused by the earthquake in Myanmar is widespread. Critical infrastructure including power lines, commercial properties, and community facilities lie in ruins. UNICEF is working with partners to assess and respond to the needs of affected children and families. Children face increased vulnerability in the aftermath of disasters. And children in Myanmar are already vulnerable to the ongoing violence and humanitarian crisis. UNICEF is on the ground but we can’t do it alone.
