TP+ Rotary partner with UNICEF to launch vaccine project in the Pacific
Rotary launched their centennial projects at Government House, announcing a Pacific immunisation programme in partnership with UNICEF. The programme will reach 100,000 children with three vaccines in the Pacific.
The Asian Development Bank’s (ADB) Board of Directors has approved a total financing package of $29.7 million to support the introduction of new vaccines in Samoa, Tonga, Tuvalu, and Vanuatu through the System Strengthening for Effective Coverage of New Vaccines in the Pacific Project. Over 580,000 people across the four countries will benefit from the project, which will improve overall immunization coverage rates and support greater efficiency of primary health services.
