What children can do! WASH, Coughs and Pneumonia, and Intestinal Worms

24 January, 2025

Dear Friends,

I’m thrilled to share the news that we’ve published *THREE new posters*!

These have taken over a year to create, and we’ve had the wonderful involvement of schoolchildren in Kenya as part of our team.

Click the links to download for free the double sided posters best printed on A3.

We’re so pleased to see how many people are downloading our posters—our HIV poster alone has reached people in *143 countries*!

If you believe that children can play a role in promoting health and preventing illness, please take a moment to check out our resources and share the links with colleagues and practitioners who might find them useful.

The posters are designed for educators, parents, youth workers, religious leaders, community groups, and both non-government and government agencies.

We also have storybooks on many topics and teachers' guides on nutrition and eye health and mental health. Again, all co-created with experts, partners and allies and children.

We’d love to hear your thoughts on the posters and any ideas you might have for completing our series of 10 key health topic posters—just two more to go!

Thank you so much, and best wishes,

Clare Hanbury
