Expedia and UNICEF are calling on travellers just like you to join in an effort to help re-open the world, one trip and one jab at a time.

Starting today, each booking you make via Expedia’s app will result in a donation to help UNICEF’s global COVID-19 response in vulnerable communities in over 180 countries, bringing us all one step closer to experiencing the world again.

Expedia is supporting UNICEF in the largest global vaccine supply operation to date. Together with UNICEF, Expedia is committed to supporting the mission of delivering safe COVID-19 vaccinations to people who need them most, regardless of where they are in the world.

Why does this partnership matter?

As of 1 August 2021, here are five fast facts you should know:

• Less than 15% of the world is currently fully vaccinated(1)
• Less than 1% of those in low-income economies have received at least 1 dose(2)
• Introduction of a vaccine could help prevent the loss of $375 billion to the global economy every month(3)
• For every dollar invested in vaccination in the world’s 94 lowest-income countries, $16 are expected to be saved in healthcare costs, lost wages and lost productivity(4)
• Vaccination currently saves between 2 and 3 million lives every year(5)

The time is now for travellers and the tourism industry to come together and drive change.
