This week, @PATHtweets, @UNICEF, @WHO@AfricaCDC@_AfricanUnion, @PMNCH country technical teams and advocacy stakeholders to co-create a regional Every Woman Every Newborn Everywhere action plan to strengthen country level efforts and improve accountability and action for #MNCH.
Join us tomorrow morning for an informative talk show on promoting and financing strategies for immunization against cervical cancer and childhood diseases on @ntvuganda at 11AM. Don't miss out on this important discussion! @PATHtweets#HPV#ICHD
The funding landscape for vaccines remains heavily donor reliant with GoU financing covering approx. only 7% of the overall budget. Engaging legislators and other Stakeholders is vital in shaping resource allocation and prioritization for vaccines and immunization.
Esther Nasikye: “As advocates, we have the power to advance key policy asks to the right decision-makers to accelerate attainment of maternal and newborn health targets across all levels.”
