A ‘mission’ for vaccination
The Consensus Report
The Consensus Report represents a collaborative effort to provide thought-leadership on, and recommendations to strengthen immunisation systems in Europe. The work is informed by a co-created ‘mission temple’ and shaped by the collective, multi-disciplinary expertise of the members of the Mission Board on Vaccination in Europe.
Four pillars
Our mission temple
-
Data and evidence
Critical gaps in data and evidence need to be addressed to optimise decision-making on vaccination policies and programmes.
-
Beliefs, perceptions and vaccine confidence
Continuous monitoring of confidence in vaccination across Europe is crucial to identify changes and develop tailored responses and policy actions.
-
Citizens’ access to vaccines
Access to vaccines is examined through three dimensions: vaccine availability, vaccination services accessibility, and vaccination equity.
-
Convergence and alignment
While organisation and delivery of health services rest at national level, greater European level alignment on a core calendar for adult vaccination and closing gaps in vaccination decision-making could benefit public health and increase vaccine confidence.
