Every child has a story

Six months pregnant mother, Hantaralala, visits the Ankadinandriana health centre, situated in the rural highlands of central Madagascar. Hantarala is at the centre, which is the only centre available to the 10,600 inhabitants in 14 rural villages over 40km east of the capital, Antananarivo, to receive her vaccine against Maternal and Newborn Tetanus, supported by the Pampers and UNICEF “1 pack + 1 vaccine” campaign.

Elise is a community health worker in the rural village of Andramonina, situated in the highlands of central Madagascar and around 5km from the nearest health centre. Selected by the people in her village to become a community health worker, Elise is a well-known and trusted member of her community. Since 2008, she has been supporting women and children on all health issues including raising awareness of vaccination campaigns against Maternal and Newborn Tetanus, supported by the Pampers and UNICEF “1 pack + 1 vaccine” campaign.
