WHO says the 2025 WHO and UNICEF Estimates of National Immunization Coverage (WUENIC) will be officially released on 15 July 2026, with a public webinar the same day to present and discuss the key findings [1]. WHO describes WUENIC as the world’s most comprehensive and widely used immunization-coverage dataset, drawing on the latest available country-reported data across WHO and UNICEF Member States [1]. Why it matters: WUENIC is framed as a key tool for assessing global progress in reaching every child with life-saving vaccines and for identifying where progress has accelerated, where challenges remain, and where coverage has slipped [1]. The release can shape immunization policy, donor attention, and country-level catch-up efforts because it offers trend data at regional and global levels [1]. Key insights: WHO says the estimates cover essential infant and childhood vaccines across all Member States and at regional and global levels [1]. | The webinar is scheduled for 15 July 2026 from 13:00–14:30 CEST, with simultaneous interpretation in Arabic, Chinese, French, Portuguese, Russian, and Spanish [1]. | WHO says a recording will be available from 18 July 2026 [1]. | WHO links the estimates to Immunization Agenda 2030 and to evidence-based decision-making and targeted action [1]. Cheatsheet facts: What changed: WHO announced the official release and webinar for the 2025 WUENIC immunization estimates [1]. | Why now: Annual coverage data are being released as countries and global health actors assess progress and gaps in vaccination coverage [1]. | Watch next: The release of the 2025 WUENIC findings on 15 July 2026 and the webinar recording from 18 July 2026 [1].
