Egypt becomes the 27th country to eliminate trachoma as a public health problem

#Egypt becomes the 27th country validated by WHO for eliminating #trachoma as a public health problem!

This marks a historic public health milestone for the country.

Trachoma remains a public health problem in 30 countries and is the world’s leading infectious cause of blindness.

Together, we can build a brighter future!

Text card which says, "Every 43 seconds, at least one child dies from pneumonia worldwide. But almost all of these deaths are preventable."

Pneumonia is the infectious disease that claims the most children’s lives worldwide – almost all of these deaths are preventable.

Without access to quality health care and vaccines, millions of children are at risk of this preventable disease.

volunteer work among older persons

Who says older people can't volunteer? Not us!

Volunteering later in life supports active ageing, boosts self-esteem, and enhances physical and mental wellbeing.

Complex issues need more than facts — they need stories that connect evidence to daily realities.

Facts inform. Narratives build trust, meaning & action.
When evidence meets story, communication becomes impact.

We are deeply saddened by the passing of UN Messenger of Peace Dr. Jane Goodall.

Her life’s work championing conservation, humanity and the natural world leaves an enduring legacy.

Our condolences to her family, the Jane Goodall Institute and all who draw hope from her example.

It’s almost been a month since a powerful earthquake struck Kunar and Nangarhar provinces on 31 August.

We continue to scale our response. With support from European Union Civil Protection and Humanitarian Aid we’ve just received more supplies to support children and families.

The world is healthier, wealthier, better educated than 30 years ago. But entrenched inequalities & fragile trust still hold us back.

As we head to #SocialSummit2025, the ILO’s flagship report sets the agenda for fairness.

We are deeply saddened by the passing of #JaneGoodall, a remarkable scientist, advocate, and changemaker whose work transcended generations and borders.

Her legacy will continue to inspire all of us working for people, for the planet, and with a #lifeonpurpose.

#Mozambique has one of the highest rates of child marriage in the world.

UNICEF is reaching the girls behind these statistics. Investing in their education, engaging their parents in protecting them from forced unions and violence, and connecting them to services can change these figures.
