As today marks the last day of the #WorldImmunizationWeek, we remain committed to working with Gov't of The Gambia in making sure that every child is vaccinated in the country. Thank you to @gavi, @MofaJapan_en, @USAID, and other partners for your support! #HumanlyPossible
You can't stay silent about the #FGM crisis. #DidYouKnow that 7⃣6⃣% of #Girls & #Women have been cut in The #Gambia? It's time to listen to survivors, support their healing, and work towards a future free from #FGM for every girl across the country. #EndFGMNow
Awa, 15, a poet and activist working with @CTY_Gambia reminds us about the horrors women and girls face when their rights are violated. The protection of children and adolescents is non-negotiable. Read the poem below and be inspired to make a change. #ENDViolenceAgainstChildren
While focusing on prevention, @UNICEFGambia also provides life-saving support for malnourished children. A 9⃣0⃣% cure rate for 3⃣,5⃣5⃣8⃣ children with severe acute malnutrition in 2⃣0⃣2⃣3⃣. Together, we are building stronger community-based care systems #ForEveryChild in 🇬🇲
Imagine choosing between food or school for your child🥹 In 2⃣0⃣2⃣3⃣, we supported 5⃣1⃣,7⃣7⃣5⃣+ households with cash & in-kind assistance, enabling their children to continue their schooling. Breaking the poverty cycle starts with education📚 #ForEveryChild, we must do more.
Don't let your children miss out on their routine vaccinations. UNICEF, Government of The Gambia, & @gavi remain resolute in ensuring that no child in The 🇬🇲 should ever suffer from a vaccine-preventable disease. The most #HumanlyPossible thing to do is to get them vaccinated
Vaccines save lives and protect children and our communities from preventable diseases. This #WorldImmunizationWeek, we call for more funding, support, and prioritize vaccinations for every child, everywhere in The Gambia. It's #HumanlyPossible.
Thank you to @AmbassadorCuba for a great meeting and fruitful discussion on supporting child and maternal health in The Gambia.

We all have an urgent responsibility to protect girls and women from harmful practices. These practices – child marriage and Female Genital Mutilation – rob girls of their childhood and threaten their well-being. We must act NOW! #EndFGM #EndChildMarriage
Happy #EarthDay 🌍 Today, in our quest to continue supporting youth & children-led #ClimateAction, we ask young people if they had a superpower to address the climate crisis, what would it be & why? Here's a response from UNICEF Youth Voice from the Sahel, @iamdawdacham:

Sports aren't just about physical activity — they're essential for our children's development and well-being. From building confidence and teamwork skills to fostering discipline and resilience, sports teach invaluable life lessons that extend far beyond the field or court! 🏀⚽️
