Beyond identifying zero-dose children: What the field is teaching us

Finding zero-dose children is only the beginning. 🛑👶
Our foot soldiers across AMAC are going the extra mile, reaching remote communities to vaccinate children on the go. But the field is teaching us something deeper: behind every data point is a family facing real barriers—long walks, high transport costs, and lack of basic services.
A referral isn't always enough if the whole community is left behind.
That’s why community-based public health matters. We aren't just delivering vaccines; we are connecting families to essential services and building sustainable wellbeing.
Thank you to our incredible vaccination teams for showing us that reaching the last mile is about deep, lasting commitment. ❤️

A conference is valuable when the conversation continues after the room empties. At GLC, connections can become ideas, ideas can become opportunities, and opportunities can become pathways. This was one participant's reflection. What would you want to discover at GLC 2.0?

From bold questions to unexpected connections, GLC 1.0 created moments that stayed with us. Swipe through five moments that captured the spirit of GLC. But here is the real question: what happens when we take that energy into the next chapter?

There are moments that become more than moments. GLC 1.0 brought young people, leaders, educators, institutions and changemakers into one room to ask bigger questions about the future of young people. We are looking back, not because we are done, but because every next chapter begins somewhere.
Tell us one word that describes GLC 1.0 to you.

Silence isn't always peace. Sometimes it's someone quietly fighting a battle no one else can see. 💚

This ***dePreventionMonth, we're reminding you: your life matters, even on the days it feels heaviest. If you're struggling, please don't carry it alone, reach out to someone you trust, or call the Nigerian Su***de Prevention Helpline (toll-free): 0800 123 2000.

Check in on the people around you today. A simple "how are you, really?" could mean more than you know.

A child should not have to be missed twice. First by the immunisation system, and then by the response designed to reach them.

In AMAC, , implemented by Hub Initiative (GHI), is helping to strengthen that response with support from , and Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance. And the work is beginning to show results.

Through community mobilisation and routine immunisation coordination, 47 zero-dose children and 92 under-immunised children have been identified, while 121 children have been vaccinated and 18 followed up closely. These are early-stage figures.

What’s made this progress possible?
🤝 Government ownership through the AMAC Local Immunisation Officer and Head of Department (Health)
📊 Data-informed planning with the AMAC M&E Coordinator and vaccine_network for Disease Control
🗣️ A stronger coordination platform bringing together RI stakeholders from all 12 wards
🔄 Revival of the AMAC Monthly RI Review Meeting
🏘️ Community action: our mobilisers supported the DEEP FCT RI Intensification Drive (23–28 Aug) across 10 AMAC wards

Zero-dose reduction requires a functioning pathway: community mobilisation → referral → vaccination → follow-up. Project DIVA is helping to strengthen that pathway in AMAC.

We welcome continued collaboration with partners committed to strengthening zero-dose reduction and building more equitable immunisation systems in Nigeria.
