The Vaccination Demand Hub regularly hosts events and trainigs to highlight best-practices, innovation, and leadership of global vaccination efforts.
Convening partners to take stock of current state of demand for Routine and COVID-19 immunization and implications for primary health care. Join us for an exciting evening to learn about promising field practices, collaboration opportunities, and connect with Vaccination Demand Hub members.
The interconnected nature of social norms, behavior, community systems, and health systems requires multidimensional tools to both diagnose root causes and intervene with a system of solutions. The purpose of this session is to activate previously overlooked connections and leverage points, including nudging and normalizing behavior. This session will introduce hands-on tools to analyze complex challenges and co-create solutions through multiple systems mapping methods. This methodology is uniquely suited for situations where health services are available, but a subset of the intended population is not actively seeking them. Therefore, groups will work through example scenarios to increase community uptake of primary health services.
To address the issue of heterogeneous demand expertise at the country level and build a cadre of country demand experts at scale, a first-of-its-kind comprehensive training on ‘accelerating recovery of routine immunisation, reaching zero-dose children and promoting COVID-19 vaccine demand’ has been rolled out in June, 2022. This is a multi-agency (WHO – IVB and Infodemic Management, UNICEF, US CDC and GAVI) initiative under the umbrella of the Vaccination Demand Hub and is based on the latest innovative thinking in the demand space, and further supported by USAID, BBC Media Action, JSI, Sabin, and many other CSOs. The 4-week intensive training has a cohort of ~600 participants from 92 countries, and the curriculum is based on an interactive learning pedagogy consisting of lectures, simulation exercises and peer-to-peer engagement.
