AGP Executive Report
Last update: 2 hours agoImmunisation Watch: A new WHO–UNICEF report shows many Pacific countries are still missing the 90% target for child vaccinations. Kiribati hit only four vaccine targets in 2025, while Niue (100%) and Tuvalu (93%) performed best; Palau fell short on the final measles dose (75%). Digital Access for Health: An ITU and Internet Society report highlights how community-run internet networks can help connect remote islands like Kiribati, where high prices, limited skills, and weak services block access to health and other essentials. AI Governance for the Pacific: UN discussions on AI governance warn that fast-moving AI could widen the digital divide. Pacific countries are urged to build “guardrails” while using digital readiness work—like Tonga’s digital-first government services—to ensure AI benefits reach people, including in health-related services. WHO Opportunities: WHO opened its Global Internship Programme to citizens of all 194 member states, offering public health placements across Switzerland and country offices worldwide.
