Guidance on an adapted evidence to recommendation process for National Immunization Technical Advisory Groups

This guidance describes a systematic approach called the “Evidence to Recommendation Process” (‎henceforth called “EtRProcess”)‎ for use by national immunization technical advisory groups (‎NITAGs)‎. The process described is based on the EtR Process used by the WHO Strategic Advisory Groups of Experts on Immunization (‎SAGE)‎ and other long-functioning NITAGs, but has been adapted to fit the level of maturity of recently established NITAGs, which often face limited human and financial resources.
