What is uInfluence?
Separating fact from fiction online can be hard. uInfluence is here to help. uInfluence is a global network of people who use their influence on social media for good. Our volunteers sign up to receive shareable, easy-to-understand messages straight from the world’s top health experts at organizations like UNICEF, the World Health Organization, and ministries of health.
Right now, uInfluence volunteers are responding to polio outbreaks, voicing support for routine immunisations, and answering common questions about vaccines. When we share science-backed facts about vaccination, we’re making the world a safer and healthier place, one volunteer at a time.
Make your influence count. Sign up for uInfluence to fight for the truth and share the health facts that people need most.
