Vaccinations are among the most effective health interventions, sustainable and affordable.
Although they prevent each year between 2 and 3 million child deaths, a million and half of children continue to die every year from diseases that could be prevented with a vaccine.
Globally, 20% of the child population (0-5 years) are not regularly vaccinated.
With the international campaign Project “100% let’s vaccinate every child ", UNICEF aims to strengthen immunization programs in eight states particularly vulnerable, in which focuses quarter of global infant mortality: Afghanistan, Angola, Chad, Democratic Republic of Congo, Nigeria , Pakistan, South Sudan and Yemen.
The campaign aims to empower both vaccinations "routine" and the specific ones against polio, contributing every day to save the lives of 4,000 children.
In the 8 countries benefiting from the activities of the polio campaign is a serious risk to public health services and routine immunization are inadequate or inefficient: Afghanistan, Nigeria and Pakistan are the only three countries in the world where the disease remains endemic.
The campaign aims to raise more than $ 100 million by the end of 2017.
The goal is to vaccinate 79.9 million children under five years against polio, protecting 16.6 million infants and children (0-12 months) with routine immunizations, reaching 6 million children never vaccinated before, many of whom live in remote areas or lack of health services.
In these 8 United UNICEF it will strengthen three strategic areas for vaccination of all children:
the cold chain (the system of storage and transportation of vaccines at a constant temperature),
awareness activities Community and social
vaccinating children hardest to reach and the emergency response to outbreaks.
The expected results from the campaign include:
The achievement, in every district of every state, a vaccination coverage of at least 80%
for the trivalent vaccine diphtheria-pertussis-tetanus (DPT3), a global indicator of the efficiency of vaccination programs.
The eradication of the polio virus in Afghanistan, Nigeria and Pakistan.
The status of a country free from polio (polio-free country) in the other 5 States
What will we do to help them
It will set up a group exhibition that will directly involve all the participating artists, who will give them a painting.
All the works donated by the artists will be offered for sale with a minimum bid during the event and all proceeds will be donated to UNICEF and will fund the project “100% let’s vaccinate every child "that the provincial committee UNICEF of Messina and the Roberta Smedili Association adopted for its business for the year 2016.
