This is the preface of the new publication The many faces of immunization. Learn more… Download the collection… Every day, thousands of health workers, from Afghanistan to Zimbabwe, get up and go to work with a single goal in mind ­ to ensure that vaccines reach those who need them. To mark World Immunization Week 2023 (24­–30 April 2023) and the launch of the “Big Catch Up” campaign, #The_Geneva_Learning_Foundation (TGLF) invited members of the Movement for #Immunization_Agenda_2030 (IA2030) to share photographs of themselves and their daily work. More than 1,000 visual stories were shared. These are not the carefully composed and technically accomplished shots of the professional photographer: rather, they capture a raw and authentic view of what immunization means in practice. The transport (...)

Widening inequities : #immunization Agenda 2030 remains “off-track”
▻https://redasadki.me/2024/02/05/widening-inequities-immunization-agenda-2030-remains-off-track

The WHO Director General’s report to the 154th session of the Executive Board on progress towards the #Immunization_Agenda_2030 (IA2030) goals paints a “sobering picture” of uneven global recovery since #COVID-19. As of 2022, 3 out of 7 main impact indicators remain “off-track”, including numbers of #zero-dose children, future deaths averted through vaccination, and outbreak control targets. Current evidence indicates substantial acceleration is essential in order to shift indicators out of the “off-track” categories over the next 7 years. While some indicators showed recovery from pandemic backsliding, the report makes clear these improvements are generally insufficient to achieve targets set for 2030. While some indicators have improved from 2021, overall performance still “lags 2019 levels” (...)

Movement for #Immunization_Agenda_2030 (IA2030): National #EPI leaders from 31 countries share experience of #HPV vaccination

What difference can peer-led learning and action make for national EPI planners seeking new strategies to support HPV vaccine introduction or reintroduction? The stakes are high: HPV vaccination efforts, if successful, will avert 3.4 million deaths by 2030. On Friday, EPI focal points for HPV and other national-level MOH colleagues from 31 countries convened under the banner of the Movement for Immunization Agenda 2030 (IA2030), which connects over 60,000 primarily sub-national health staff worldwide. This time, it was national HPV vaccination focal points and other national EPI planners who joined to share experience between countries of ‘what works’ (and how). They also discussed how the Geneva Learning Foundation’s unique #peer_learning-to-action pathway could help them overcome (...)

Honoring #health_professionals as leaders of change
▻https://redasadki.me/2023/07/24/honoring-health-professionals-as-leaders-of-change

We honor everyone who is joining the Special Event “From community to planet: Health professionals on the frontlines of climate change”: health staff from immunization and other areas of health – environmental health and One Health, but also those who fight neglected tropical diseases (NTDs), HIV, and other ailments. We also honor allies, including human rights advocates, those working to decolonize #Global_health, fighting for gender and racial equity as well as economic justice. Since 2016, the Geneva Learning Foundation (TGLF) has supported a global #peer_learning network and platform, built by and for immunization staff from all over the world. This is because we believe that practitioner-led peer education is a powerful philosophy for change in the Digital Age. In 2020, when the (...)

Rising together: promoting #inclusivity and #collaboration in #Global_health

The ways of knowing of health professionals who work on the front lines is distinct because no one else is there every day. Yet they are typically absent from the global table, even though the significance of local knowledge and action is increasingly recognized. In the quest to achieve #global_health goals, what value should professionals within global health agencies ascribe to local experience? How do we cultivate a more inclusive and collaborative environment? And why should we bother? A recent roundtable discussion, attended by technical officers and senior leaders, provided an occasion to present and explain how the Geneva Learning Foundation’s #Immunization_Agenda_2030 (IA2030) platform and network could be used to support “consultative engagement” between global and local leaders. (...)

Credible knowers

“Some individuals are acknowledged as credible knowers within #Global_health, while the knowledge held by others may be given less credibility.” – (Himani Bhakuni and Seye Abimbola in The Lancet, 2021) “Immunization Agenda 2030” or “IA2030” is a strategy that was unanimously adopted at the World Health Assembly in 2020. The global community that funds and supports vaccination globally is now exploring what it needs to do differently to transform the Agenda’s goal of saving 50 million lives by the end of the decade into reality. Last year, over 10,000 national and sub-national health staff from 99 countries pledged to achieve this goal when they joined #The_Geneva_Learning_Foundation’s first #IA2030 learning and action research programme.
