Description: The COVID-19 pandemic has affected countries and people in very different ways, making the SDG’s principle to Leave No One Behind particularly relevant as decision makers at all levels consider recovery plans to build back better from the lingering pandemic. Reaching zero-dose children is a key step as addressing this also provides vulnerable families with access to additional primary health care services. This webinar will feature speakers representing the immunization, education, nutrition, and women’s empowerment sectors to build on the momentum of this year’s UN General Assembly and the High Level Political Forum. Their theme was “Building back better from the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) while advancing the full implementation of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development,” and we hope you will join us for an engaging panel followed by time for discussion.

Speakers:

  • Dr. William Moss, International Vaccine Access Center
  • Ms. Bujela Nokunceda, MP, Eswatini, Interparliamentary Union (IPU)
  • Ms. Khalila Mbowe, Country Director, Girl Effect Tanzania
  • Ms. Sonia Ancellin-Panzani, Head of Country Action, Scaling Up Nutrition (SUN)
  • Ms. Anamaria Bejar, Director of Public Policy Engagement, Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance
