نن به واکسیناتوران په بېلابېلو ولایتونو کې یو ځل بیا هغو کورونو ته مراجعه وکړي چې ماشومان يې له واکسین څخه پاتې شوي دي. دا اړینه ده چې د پولیو د له منځه وړلو په موخه په هر کمپاین کې هر ماشوم ته ورسېږو.

Nutrition services for women, by women 👭

In @UNICEF's nutrition daycare centres, mothers are welcomed by an all-female staff, who treat and screen their children for malnutrition.

Mums also join cooking demonstrations, learning to prepare healthy meals for their little ones.

نن به د پولیو واکسین کمپاین د هېواد په بېلابېلو ولایتونو کې دوام ولري. دا زموږ دنده ده چې هر له پنځو کالو کم عمره ماشوم واکسین او د پولیو پر وړاندې يې خوندي کړو.

Every child deserves clean, safe water, whether at home, at school, at the doctor or in their communities.

With support from @JapanGov @JapaninAFG and the people of Japan, UNICEF is constructing and rehabilitating 21 water systems in rural Afghanistan.

ناسم معلومات د ماشومانو ژوند له خطر سره مخ کوي، ځکه نو د پولیو واکسین په اړه اوازو او افواهاتو ته غوږ مه نيسٸ؛ د پولیو ویروس ستاسو د ماشومانو پر وړاندې ستر ګواښ دی.
ماشومان مو په واکسینول له تلپاتي فلج څخه وژغورئ.

۱۸ کلن محمد اعظم د غزني د قره باغ ولسوالۍ اوسېدونکی له کورنیو غوښتنه کوي چې خپل ماشومان دې د ده په څېر برخلیک سره نه مخ کوي، بلکې د هغوی سالمې روغتیا او راتلونکې ته دې فکر وکړي، هغوی دې په منظم ډول واکسین کړي څو د پولیو په فلجوونکې ناروغۍ اخته نه شي.👇

Gul Jan's five eldest children were malnourished, but when she gave birth to Ahmad-Sudais, she started attending cooking sessions with a Community Health Worker in her village.

Now she prepares delicious and nutritious meals so baby Ahmad-Sudais grows up healthy. 🥕😋🍲

The recent floods in Afghanistan pose an urgent and persistent threat to children.

@UNICEF calls for greater investment in preparedness and climate resilience, to both protect children from future disasters and strengthen the basic services they rely on.
