Gavi-Gates Humanly Possible Immunization Campaign

Global, Multi-Regional

The Humanly Possible campaign, launched by Gates Foundation with WHO, UNICEF, and Gavi, advocates for global immunization by highlighting that vaccines have saved an estimated 154 million lives over 50 years. The campaign mobilizes funding, engages political leaders, and supports local immunization champions to raise awareness about routine vaccination importance. It addresses stagnating coverage rates and the 14.5 million children who did not receive a single vaccine in 2023.
