Happy Tuesday🤍🦋!
We’ve come to know that some of us think that vaccines cause serious side effects.‼️Admittedly, the measles vaccine may come with pain/swelling around the injection site, fever or rash.

Here’s a secret you probably didn’t know. 🤫First, these side effects resolve within a few days.☑️ Secondly, these side effects are a sign that the body is working to build protection.💪 There’s no need to worry. Over the years, the vaccine has proven to be effective and safe☑️ Let’s take our children for vaccination.💉

I will be joining The World Around Young Climate Prize, Cycle 03, and seeing the work we started at BetterLife International recognised in this way feels special.

I founded @BetterLife_Int at 19, and today we are operating across Africa, working with refugee, displaced and host communities to strengthen food security, climate-smart agriculture and sustainable livelihoods.

I’m especially honoured to be mentored by Prof. Henk Ovink, Professor of Watercycle Diplomacy & Design at Delft University of Technology, Executive Director of the Global Commission on the Economics of Water, and former Ambassador to the UN and co-host of the UN 2023 Water Conference.

A big thank you to @TheWrldAround and the Young Climate Prize for believing in young people and giving our work room to grow.

Monday is here!🧡New week! New type of energy!!🎉A question. Why’s it important for us to take our children for vaccination?💉

Well, it strengthens the body’s ability to fight infections 🦠, reduces chances of being ill 🤧 and also prevents deaths from vaccine preventable diseases like malaria, measles. It also contributes to our children’s proper growth and development.💪💪

Here’s the deal. Let’s take our children for all the doses of the vaccines. ☑️ Here’s a bigger deal.🧡

Yesterday, We held a Training of Trainers (ToT) on the Public Health Emergency (PHE) campaign with Kampala U-Reporters, equipping young people with the knowledge and skills to take action in their communities.

Through the Communities of Action, our U-Reporters will help drive PHE initiatives, amplify accurate health information, tackle misinformation, and mobilise communities to be better prepared for public health emergencies.

Young people are voices and agents of action! 🚀
Join the movement. Get informed. Get involved. Take action.

Happy Thursday💙🥰!

Here’s why you need to protect your child from Measles.🦠🥲It’s highly contagious, presents with runny nose,🤧Koplik spots inside cheeks, cough,😷conjunctivitis, 🤕fever 🤒and rashes all over the body. Not only does it do that but it is also associated with complications like brain swelling (encephalitis) and even death.😔😪We wouldn’t want our children to go through that now would we?? Noooo. 🚫So let’s do what we can to protect them. 💪

Here’s the great opportunity.🤩The Ministry of Health is running a Measles- Rubella campaign nationwide from 1ST OCTOBER TO 5TH OCTOBER 2026 at your nearest healthcare facility or health outreach post. 🏥🩺 Here is your reminder not to miss out on the opportunity to protect your children.💙🥰👶🏽

Happy Wednesday!💛🫂
Midweek!!😮‍💨Phewww!! Here’s something to think about! Germs are everywhere. 🦠🦠As humans we are exposed to many disease causing pathogens daily.🥲 Stay with me. Now, because when we are older, our immune system is more developed, it is able to fight off infections😷. This is not the case for our children under 5 who are still more vulnerable because their immune systems are still developing.🥹

Well, here’s where vaccination comes in handy.💪 For example to protect our children from measles, we take them for the measles vaccine. 💉

Guess what?? 😁 The Ministry of Health is running a Measles- Rubella campaign nationwide from 1ST OCTOBER TO 5TH OCTOBER 2026 at your nearest healthcare facility or health outreach post. 🏥🩺Do not miss out on the opportunity to protect your child🤩💛
