Public health emergencies can increase vulnerability to sexual exploitation and abuse, particularly where people face isolation, limited access to services and reduced monitoring.
Identifying and addressing these risks must be part of every emergency response.

Have you done “duyiro” this morning??
35% of all deaths in Uganda are now caused by NCDs; this is according to Dr. Oyoo Charles Akiya, Commissioner, Non-Communicable Diseases, @MinofHealthUG .
Non-Communicable Diseases [NCDs] are long-term health conditions that do not spread from person to person.
Prevention: active lifestyle and self care practices!

Ug is a ebola free country, but with Ebola outbreaks affecting some neighboring countries and lives being lost, Ugandans need to remain vigilant. Let’s stay informed, follow health guidelines, and report any suspected cases to health authorities. Prevention starts with awareness
What happens when young people have the power to make informed health choices? Communities thrive.
Under the Model School Health Program in Lango, we supported 21.9k girls with MHM , 200 teachers trained & 18.2k youth reached
Let’s keep investing in young people.

#Malaria is the main cause of illness in Uganda. But local communities are taking action.
Across 23 districts, we train and support community health workers so families get fast care and prevention tools right at their doorsteps.
