Calibri%26quot;,sans-serif;%22%3EThe Somalia Federal Ministry of Health, in collaboration with WHO, UNICEF and other partners, aims to enhance the capacity of the national immunization program through a comprehensive training initiative.

This initiative will cover a spectrum of training modules designed for various stakeholders involved in immunization, including vaccinators, mid-level managers, data persons, cold chain managers and technicians, social mobilizers, surveillance focal persons. The primary goal is to strengthen the overall immunization system, ensuring equitable access, and high-quality vaccine delivery across Somalia.

Following it in sequence. Rota was introduced through routine immunization in the months of July and August 2025. The post-campaign coverage survey for PCV indicates 76% coverage, compared with 78% administrative coverage. A Post-Introduction Evaluation (PIE) is planned to identify the lessons from the introduction. Further, Somalia plans to introduce a booster dose of the diphtheria-containing vaccine, switch the formulation from pentavalent to hexavalent, and introduce a Hepatitis B Birth dose and a rubella-containing vaccine in the near future.
