The Global Polio Eradication Program is at the vanguard of UNICEF's equitable agenda, envisioning a world in which no child, regardless of location, is vulnerable to the paralyzing consequences of the polio virus.

Despite significant progress under the Global Polio Eradication Initiative (GPEI), wild poliovirus (WPV) transmission in Afghanistan and Pakistan is growing. 

While significant progress was made between 2019 and 2022, the trend of polio transmission in both Pakistan and Afghanistan has recently reversed, jeopardizing the GPEI objective of proclaiming the world free of wild poliovirus by 2027.
