Increasing and maintaining vaccination uptake is vital for vaccines to achieve their success. For this reason, commitment and demand are a strategic priority for the Immunization Agenda 2030 (IA2030). This means that immunization is valued and actively sought by all people, and health authorities commit to ensuring that immunization is available as a key contributor to enjoyment of the highest attainable standard of health as a fundamental right.

The course content will focus on (1) what drives uptake of vaccines (2) practical steps and available tools to improve demand and equitable uptake of vaccines. This course will support participants to operationalize SP2 through the application of tools and strategies that are grounded in the IA2030 core principles: people-centered, country-owned, partnership-based, and data-guided.

Participants will walk away from this introductory course with a clear and actionable plan for improving demand and equitable vaccine coverage using the approaches outlined in the course content.
