One More Mile to End Polio · 8 September 2024 ·
The End Polio Now campaign is a global initiative spearheaded by Rotary International to eradicate polio worldwide. This debilitating disease once affected millions of children each year, but through relentless efforts in vaccination, surveillance, advocacy, community engagement, resource mobilisation, and public awareness, polio cases have been reduced by 99.9%.
Why Is It Important?
- Vaccination: Ensuring every child is immunized to prevent the spread of polio.
- Surveillance: Monitoring and responding to any new cases promptly.
- Advocacy: Influencing governments and policymakers to support eradication efforts.
- Community Engagement: Educating and involving communities in polio prevention.
- Resource Mobilisation: Raising funds to support ongoing immunization and eradication activities.
- Public Awareness: Keeping the fight against polio in the public eye to maintain support and funding.
