.@WHO, together with health authorities and @UNICEF, launched a nationwide polio vaccination campaign in #Sudan today to protect 11 million children from the ongoing polio outbreak and the risk of importation from neighboring countries. The campaign will be conducted in two phases: 💧26-29 October: targeting 6 million children in 107 localities across 12 states; 💧First week of November: targeting 5 million children in 79 localities across 6 hard-to-reach states – the five Darfurs and West Kordofan. A second round nationwide vaccination campaign is also planned about a month after this first round campaign.

Polio is spreading in Sudan amid war. Health authorities, WHO and UNICEF have launched a nationwide campaign to reach 11 million children. Safe access to every state, including Darfur, is vital.

Those six states are the five Darfurs and West Kordofan, WHO Sudan says. The campaign also guards against importation from neighbouring countries, and a second nationwide round is planned about a month later. #Darfur #Polio #HumanitarianAccess

Vaccinators need safe, unhindered access to every child in every state. Follow @WHOSudan and @UNICEFSudan, share verified updates, and back the polio response. #EndPolio #Sudan #KeepEyesOnSudan

In Sudan, a mother came to hospital for her malnourished child and found care for her own depression too. Mental health support belongs in every humanitarian response.

Stigma still keeps many from seeking help. Fund and protect mental health care alongside nutrition and health services across Sudan. #MentalHealthMatters #HumanitarianAccess #KeepEyesOnSudan

In Sudan, 13-year-olds Hames and Mais are finding time to learn, play and simply be children. At a @UNICEF-supported child-friendly space in White Nile, displaced, refugee, and host-community children can learn, play and access psychosocial support. #ForEveryChild

Displaced and refugee children in White Nile, Sudan, are finding a safe place to learn, play and get psychosocial support at a UNICEF-supported child-friendly space. Every child deserves this.
