With partners, we oriented @KCCAUG officials on UNICEF-supported child protection services for Uganda’s Bundibugyo #EbolaResponseUG26.
Together, we’re helping deliver integrated child protection, mental health & psychosocial support, GBV prevention & safeguarding services.
As the response to the ongoing Bundibugyo Virus Disease (BVD) continues, regional preparedness remains our strongest line of defence.
In Kampala, Uganda, Africa CDC, together with @WHOAFRO, @UKHSA, @UNmigration, @UNICEF and partners, has convened representatives from 13 @_AfricanUnion Member States to strengthen coordinated preparedness and response across borders.
Participating countries are advancing a coordinated regional approach by strengthening surveillance, laboratory networks, emergency operations, Points of Entry and community engagement to enhance preparedness and reduce the risk of cross-border transmission.
Every month, NMS delivers vaccines to the doorstep of health facilities across Uganda.
Leveraging a reliable cold chain and robust distribution network, we ensure life-saving vaccines remain within reach of every child and community across the country.
