AGP Executive Report
Last update: 3 hours agoVaccination Coverage: A new WHO–UNICEF report says most Pacific countries are missing the 90% target for childhood immunisation, but Niue stands out with 100% coverage on its national schedule (with Tuvalu next at 93%). The report also flags gaps by vaccine type: Tuvalu fell short on the final HPV dose for girls (78%), Palau hit 75% for the final measles dose, and Kiribati reached only four targets in 2025. Global Health Opportunities: The WHO has opened its Global Internship Programme to citizens of all 194 member states, including eligible applicants across Africa—placements span WHO headquarters in Switzerland, regional offices, and country offices, with roles posted continuously. Citizenship Testing (Policy & Integrity): New Zealand’s planned citizenship test will be in-person rather than online, after internal documents raised concerns about cheating and test integrity; officials also planned separate fees per test attempt, with the test expected to roll out from late 2027 for most applicants.
