Reaching the missed remains one of the most persistent challenges in immunization. In Pakistan, vaccines are available, yet gaps in coverage continue to leave children unprotected. When children are missed, the risk of preventable diseases remains, making it critical to strengthen how immunization is delivered. At Rayn, we have supported efforts to improve how immunization activities are tracked, understood, and acted upon. By strengthening systems through the use of technology, and enabling frontline workers with better visibility and access to timely data, teams are able to identify missed areas, respond to gaps, and reach children who were previously left out. This World Immunization Week, we reflect on the importance of strengthening systems with technology to ensure no one is left behind. #Rayn #RaynForPublicHealth #PublicHealth #WorldImmunizationWeek #EquityInHealth #ZeroDose #VaccinesWork #TechForHealth World Health Organization UNICEF Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance Gates Foundation UNICEF Pakistan

This World Immunization Week, Jhpiego reaffirm its commitment to a future where every child, everywhere, has equitable access to life-saving vaccines. At Jhpiego Pakistan, we work hand-in-hand with National and Provincial EPI programs to strengthen immunization systems supporting both routine immunization and the introduction of new vaccines. Our efforts extend to underserved and hard-to-reach communities, ensuring no one is left behind. We build capacity of frontline health workers to help improve service delivery and build trust where it matters most. Because immunization is not just a health intervention it is a promise of protection, equity, and a healthier tomorrow.

For every generation, vaccines work—but only when systems work for people. This #WorldImmunizationWeek, we’re shining a light on the systems behind every vaccine delivered. From health workers and community volunteers to supply chains and trusted conversations, immunization doesn’t happen by accident—it happens by design. In the Democratic Republic of Congo, VillageReach is working alongside governments and communities through an approach to strengthen routine immunization, so services are responsive, reliable and reach children who have too often been left out. 💡 When immunization systems are designed around people’s needs, vaccines can protect every generation, no matter where they live. 📽️ Watch how this work comes to life in communities: https://bit.ly/4uHKpb8 #WorldImmunizationWeek #VaccinesWork #ForEveryGeneration #Immunization #GlobalHealth #HealthEquity #CommunityHealth #VillageReach #WIW2026

⸻ 🌍 Strengthening Immunization Through Stakeholder Engagement As we commemorate African Immunization Week 2026 under the theme “For every generation, vaccines work,” the Muyuka Health District continues to reinforce one key truth: vaccination success is a collective effort. At the heart of our progress is continuous stakeholder engagement—bringing together parents, health workers, community leaders, and partners to build trust, improve awareness, and ensure access to life-saving vaccines. Through community dialogues, outreach activities, and collaborative planning, we are not just delivering vaccines—we are strengthening systems and empowering communities. 📌 The impact is clear: * Increased community trust * Improved vaccine uptake * Stronger partnerships for sustainable health outcomes Together, we are ensuring that no child is left behind. Let’s keep the momentum going—because every stakeholder truly makes a difference. 🛡️ Reach Every Child.

🩺 World Immunization Week 2026 - "For every generation, vaccines work" Immunisation protects lives across generations, from children to older adults and remains one of the most effective tools in public health. Every vaccine dose helps prevent disease, protect the vulnerable, and strengthen community resilience. In support of World Immunization Week 2026, the University of Sydney Vietnam Institute (SVI) reaffirms its commitment to safe, equitable and evidence‑informed immunisation, working alongside partners to help ensure vaccines continue to protect people at every stage of life. 💙 Investing in immunisation today means investing in healthier generations and a stronger, more resilient Viet Nam. #VaccinesWork #WorldImmunizationWeek #VietnamImmunizationWeek #PublicHealth

IPA’s Vaccines to Vaccination initiative, now continuing into its third year, is strengthening regional capacity, fostering collaboration with partners such as the World Health Organization and UNICEF, and empowering leaders to drive immunization efforts worldwide. With over 230 trainers capacitated across multiple regions, the initiative is advancing immunization leadership and supporting efforts to reach zero-dose children globally.

Reflecting on World Immunization Week 2026, I am proud to share our contribution to “making vaccines work in our generation” through implementation research that informs decision-making for the Expanded Program on Immunization in Mozambique: https://lnkd.in/dgby65fz The team I led at INS had the privilege of participating in the MAINSTREAM initiative, funded by the Alliance for Health Policy and Systems Research. Alongside other leading institutions, we mentored local investigators, strengthening their capacity to conduct implementation research and generating evidence to improve immunization outcomes. The initiative produced practical and actionable insights that help ensure vaccines reach the communities that need them most and improve the health of the populations we serve. I am also pleased to share the collective results from the MAINSTREAM initiative, highlighting key learnings and contributions across countries: https://lnkd.in/d6sYNkUr

Since Kenya's last immunization program review in 2018, the country has introduced new vaccines and expanded coverage. Now, a comprehensive review is underway to build on that progress. Kenya's National Vaccination and Immunization Program, with support from the World Health Organization, UNICEF, PATH, Clinton Health Access Initiative, Inc. and other partners, is reviewing 7 key areas: ✅ Program management and finance ✅ Human resource management ✅ Vaccine supply, quality and logistics ✅ Service delivery ✅ Immunization coverage and monitoring ✅ Vaccine-preventable disease surveillance ✅ Vaccine safety monitoring and demand creation This review will assess achievements, identify gaps and inform strategic planning to ensure no child is left behind. This week, multidisciplinary teams from the Ministry of Health, Kenya, counties and partners are visiting 16 counties to collect data. Teams will then come together from 26 to 30 April to analyse findings and develop recommendations. #Immunization #VaccinesSaveLives #HealthForAll #Kenya #WHO #PublicHealth

For every generation, vaccines work. As the world commemorates the 2026 Immunization Week, Heartland Alliance LTD/GTE (HALG) joins the global call to ensure that no child is left behind. In Katsina State, our work has focused on identifying and reaching zero-dose children, strengthening microplanning systems, and supporting large-scale immunization efforts built on real data. Because vaccines only work when every child is found, counted, and reached. #WorldImmunizationWeek #VaccinesWork #PublicHealth #Nigeria #HALG

National Immunization Awareness Week is an opportunity to focus on practical, system-level actions that can improve vaccine uptake and strengthen Canada’s resilience to vaccine-preventable respiratory illness. In our latest Our Voice blog, we focus on closing the immunization gap through practical policy and delivery improvements: clearer education and more convenient access points in the community. Across Canada, some populations, including older adults and people living with chronic conditions are more likely to experience serious outcomes from vaccine-preventable respiratory illnesses. Yet access and uptake remain uneven, driven by differences in awareness, affordability, and how easily immunization fits into daily life. To help close these gaps, we encourage coordinated action to improve consistency in publicly funded access to recommended vaccines and to strengthen delivery capacity where Canadians already seek care. Where appropriate, enabling pharmacists to vaccinate to the full scope of practice can be an important step to expand access and support timely immunization.
