There are two choices in life.

➡️To be passive and wait on what the world brings.

➡️Or to be an active citizen and play a part in creating a better world for yourself & others.

What choice are you making this week?

During #WorldImmunizationWeek , we've seen hopeful stories of UN Volunteers working with United Nations entities to distribute vaccines globally.

Their stories remind us that when we work together, we can make the impossible, #HumanlyPossible 💉

It has been an incredibly crucial week.

We are committed to redoubling our efforts as #Africa races to 2030. This calls for stronger mobilisation of the Regional Collaborative Platform to support United Nations Country Teams working on the continent.
