Join us for IDEAL-Vietnam project's first webinar! Topic: Scaling-up a successful project on electronic immunization information systems
Maya Rivera
In
Please join the PATH Introducing Digital Immunization information systems: Exchange and Learning from Vietnam (IDEAL-Vietnam) project for a webinar on scaling-up electronic immunization information systems. The webinar will take place on Thursday, February 27th at 1pm CET.
During the webinar the presenters will discuss lessons learned from Vietnam of a successful scale-up of an electronic immunization registry (EIR) from pilot to nationwide application. Successful scale-up is not an easy feat, and the process of moving from small- to large-scale operations in Vietnam was due in part to from-the-start planning, key partnerships, government commitment, and sustained collaboration.
The webinar will highlight key facilitators and barriers, and focus on important partnerships that catalyzed the success of the scale-up process. Government commitment was quintessential to the accomplishments in Vietnam, therefore it is with great excitement that the presenters for this webinar will be:
- Dr. Huyen Dang, Vietnam National Expanded Program on Immunization (NEPI)
- Dr. Nga Nguyen Tuyet, Vietnam Country Director
- Sang Dao Dinh, Vietnam Project Officer.
The format of the webinar will include an informational presentation, an interview with key NEPI and PATH staff members, and followed by a Q&A session. This webinar will present the findings discussed in the IDEAL-Vietnam project’s lessons learned case study that will also be released in February. You can find regularly updated project documents and information on our homepage (https://www.technet-21.org/en/topics/ideal).

INTRODUCTION
Members of the pharmaceutical supply chain have various global requirements to meet during the storage, transport and handling of time and temperature sensitive products. Changing product portfolios, requirements for good storage and distribution practices, regulatory expectations, quality management, security, and quality risk management bring many challenges to pharmaceutical safe supply chain management.
This learning event is brought to you by its creators, Extensio et Progressio (Switzerland) and Tip Kurumu (Turkey). The purpose in offering this unique learning event is to provide key players of the pharmaceutical supply chain an opportunity to gain insights into complete supply chain operations and oversight from product manufacture (or arrival in a country) to the product’s administration to the patient via experiential learning approach. This is done by bringing together a group of participants from the national regulatory authorities and pharmaceutical, biopharmaceutical, vaccine industry involved in the supply, packaging, distribution, logistics and cold chain management areas as well as industry members of immunization related equipment and device manufacturers.
COURSE OBJECTIVES
Pharmaceutical Secure Supply Chain Management on Wheels (PSSCMoW) is an experiential learning event for learners to develop their knowledge and skills enabling them to critically evaluate a pharmaceutical supply chain system and improve their associated supervisory skills. The course encourages participants to make direct observations at the storage, warehousing, distribution and health care facilities that they visit as they physically travel with mentors by bus down the length of the supply chain. This approach is designed to show participants how the theoretical background of pharmaceutical supply chain management is applied in a variety of storage, distribution, and health care facilities. It is a practical application of experiential learning theory.
By the end of the 6-day event, the participants will be able to:
Identify the major operational components in a pharmaceutical supply chain
Identify deficiencies in given situations using the “good distribution practice” (GDP) guidelines
Illustrate the inputs, activities, and outputs of each operational component of a pharmaceutical supply chain
Develop a quality agreement that is appropriate to a given situation
Given a cold storage facility, assess and control the risks to pharma, biopharma, and vaccine products consistent with GDP and “good storage practice” (GSP) guidelines
Given a mode of transportation, assess and control the risks to pharma, biopharma, and vaccine products consistent with GDP
Given a mode of distribution in the “last mile”, assess and control the risks to pharma, biopharma, and vaccine products consistent with GDP
Given a situation, select the appropriate methods and materials for packaging and shipping cold chain products to avoid/minimize risk
Given a situation, select the appropriate methods and materials to monitor temperature and/or humidity for cold chain products to obtain necessary data for making quality decisions
Given a specific temperature monitoring strategy, assess and control the risks to pharma, biopharma, and vaccine products consistent with GDP/GSP
Examine and assess documents and records that support a cold-chain process consistent with GDP/GSP
Identify work practices that contribute or reduce risks to a cold-chain worker’s health and safety
Conduct the shake test to identify whether a given freeze-sensitive vaccine has been affected by freezing
WHO CAN APPLY?
TARGET AUDIENCE
The maximum number of participants for each course is set at 15.
Primary target audience
Representatives from the government sector involved in pharmaceutical cold chain in the areas of: regulation, inspection, planning and monitoring.
Representatives from the pharmaceutical/biopharmaceutical/vaccine industry in the areas of: Supply, packaging, distribution, logistics and cold chain management. Manufacturers who already supply WHO prequalified products are encouraged to participate.

February 27 webinar on Decision Support Systems in Public Health Supply Chains
Kevin Pilz
In
Dear Colleagues,
Digital Square is pleased to invite you to a webinar on Thursday, February 27 at 9AM Eastern U.S. time (see your timezone here: https://tinyurl.com/DSSWebinar ) to discuss the potential role of Decision Support Systems (DSS) in public health supply chains. Please register for the webinar at https://path.zoom.us/meeting/register/upUrdO-tqjsqbA6TGifBEZq6cJWAqrJnQw.
USAID and the Gates Foundation recently worked with Digital Square and Accenture Development Partnerships to examine the role that Decision Support Systems (DSS) can play in strengthening public health supply chain performance and improving access to essential medicines. The Full Report and a brief Executive Summary from this work have recently been published (https://digitalsquare.org/resourcesrepository/dss). You are invited to this webinar to discuss the research, the results, and what it means for public health supply chains.
Many leading organizations managing global or developed country supply chains are leveraging DSS to deal with the inherent complexity of supply chains and manage their risk. This led us to ask: Are there opportunities to use DSS to transform public health in developing countries and improve health outcomes? The research aimed to answer that question by highlighting the opportunities that DSS represent for public health supply chains in developing countries, and understanding the path to their implementation. Specifically, the three objectives of the research were to:
-> Review the current use of DSS in supply chains to understand successes, challenges for implementation in PHDC supply chains, and key approaches to overcoming these challenges.
-> Define the transformative impact of DSS on public health supply chain outcomes.
-> Recommend investment-ready and promising applications of DSS in public health supply chains for various maturity levels.
The results of this research show that there are real opportunities for DSS to strengthen public health supply chains. Some applications of DSS are already being used in developing country environments, particularly in increasing visibility across supply chains. But, there is much more that we can do together! The webinar will discuss the findings of this research, the opportunities that exist, and respond to questions from webinar participants.
We look forward to your participation in the webinar!

Cameroonian Scholar Alumni on the Road to Impact for better Immunization Outcomes
After it all began...
The month of July has been a very busy month for Scholars of both the French and English speaking cohorts in Cameroon. Throghout this month EPI activities at all levels of the health pyramid have been colored and flavored by the dynamism of the over 50 scholars scattered all over the national territory. It all began on the Thursday July 04, 2019 when the Permanent Secretary of the Central Technical Group for the Expanded Program on Immunization recognized Scholar Alumni during the EPI National Monitoring meeting by handing over their certificates to those present. That was the first mile engaged on the course to IMPACT and since then the Scholar Cameroon team has all but accelerated.
With renewed enthusiasm and engagement we set out to build a strong country team, based on the guidance from the scholar team. Cameroon is a particular country because we have the opportunity to have two country groups because of our bilingual nature. I see this as an opportunity and not a threat that we can build on. We get to enjoy the best of both worlds (English and French of course!!!)
So far, what have we achieved?
We have been able to set up a national EPI team recognized by the National EPI Technical Group
Held 4/4 weekly country team meetings within the four weeks of the launch pad on skype
8 out of 10 Regions in Cameroon have functional Scholar groups that have met and have a designated team leader
All the two English speaking Regions of the North West and South West have prsented their projects to their Regional Delegates of Public Health
The country is working on implementing a common GRISP project that is currently under review
Based on the security challenges plaguing our two English speaking Regions they are working on common projects tailored with implementation strategies that will enable them to reach more children with immunization services
Individual scholars have taken steps towards implementing their projects especially those who did the GRISP level 1 and level 2 courses
Every opportunity we have had this month, we have used to contaminate others with the scholar spirit annd this has enabled us to get over 100 personnel at all levels of the health pyramid to apply for this fall's WHO Scholar Course on Data Improvement Planning
What have we learnt?
It is often said that to go fast, you should go alone, but to go far you should walk with others, but we have realised with the impact accelerator that with good organization, together we can actually go further and at a faster pace. More over, working together is more satisfying than working alone. We have moved from being theoritical to being concrete and practical, engaged in getting measurable results.
This matters to us because we are driven by a pledge for IMPACT that we have made with the sole goal of making a difference as far as reducing immunization inequities and improving immunization coverage is concerned. We have embarked on a course that can only gain momentum and pick up speed as time goes on until every child has received all the vaccines they need.
Some of the things that I did to turn My project into action and result in my district.
Having successfully completed the GRISP Level 1 certification course in routine immunization planning. WHO impact accelerator team call for urgent need to implement the project I developed through the course, titled: "Nigeria-invest in a tailored strategy that identify under vaccinated and unvaccinated persons and regularly provide them with the vaccines they need", to turn the project into action and result in Madobi local government area of Kano state as My district of implementation.
Attached are resource and materials I developed and use to help me brought all partners on board and supportive during the implementation exercise.
Redesigned storage code for accommodating Rota Virus Vaccine in the 3+2 baskets [300L] Ice-lined Refrigerator in the planning units.
Dear all
Routine Immunization programme is rapidly expanding in the country, more and more vaccines are included in the National Immunization Schedule [NIS] in phased manner. Rota Virus Vaccine is being introduced in Karnataka. As customary, in Dakshinakannada district, training programmes were held in 2 batches on 17th & 19th July 2019 in collaboration with WHO country office, this will be followed by training at block and planning unit level.
With additional vaccines, additional cold space is required. Most of the multi dose vials have 10 or more doses e.g. 2mL OPV provides 20 doses, 5mL MR provides 10 doses, 2.5mL fIPV provides 25 doses. Currently supplied RVV is unique in the sense 5mL per vial after reconstitution has 2 doses of 2.5mL each. Hence the storage code is revised to accommodate Vaccine Vials if not the diluents.
A Planning Unit in Karnataka is not having more than 30,000 populations, at 20 birth rate; estimated annual target of 0-1year children will be 600, on an average 50 per month. RVV vial requirement is 50 infants×3doses=150×1.11wmf [@90% usage] =166.5 doses +25% buffer stock=166.5+41.65 = 288.15; rounded off to 290. @ 2 doses per vial, 145 vials are needed with 145 diluents and 290 6mL oral syringes. Diluents and oral syringes can be kept outside the cold chain and required number of diluent vials need to be kept in the ILR at least 24hrs prior to the session.
Karnataka has the luxury of having adequate planning units, majority do not have more than 350 children per year at least in the rural area. Author had revised the earlier storage code of 2012 designed for ILR’s with 2+1 baskets [140L] for 300L ILR with 3+2 baskets, submitted to the state government which issued official circular on 29 April 2018 to all the districts and planning units. Now, in view of above it is redesigned for operational use and submitting the draft to the government for needful.

A Common "COLD" Dilemma
Dear all
Context:
A visiting officer was discussing about as to how to practically keep vaccines in the cold-chain equipment at service points / planning units. Visiting officer was also discussing as to why the domestic refrigerator is not recommended by the CDC even for keeping vaccines as alternate equipment. On completing the discussion, thought of presenting the same in the coming Academic Society Meeting for the benefit of staff nurse, medical students, interns, post graduates who may have to provide vaccination services in their profession. Hence, we made this PPT using the photos taken at different planning units in different districts and states at different times for illustration. This is the draft PPT for presenting on 24-04-2019.

"GO AUTHENTIC: ACTIVITIES THAT SUPPORT LEARNING" is now available for free download
The underground classic that explains how authentic activities help learners explore, discuss, and meaningfully construct new knowledge, GO AUTHENTIC: ACTIVITIES THAT SUPPORT LEARNING is now available for free download.
When Risintha from Sri Lanka told me that he would never be the same again because he had discovered a life beyond PowerPoint, I thought that I had to share our approach to creating transformational value through authentic learning.
The course activities that I share in this book have transformed people into change agents and helped them excel in their performances.
The activities shared in this book work because they are well thought-out and aligned with all other elements of the course. They work because we do not lecture. They work because we believe that every single participant brings a wealth of experiences to our course environment. We respect each and every one of them as a “more knowledgeable other”. This is what makes the collaborative learning so valuable to all of us, including mentors. The activities described in this book work because they are part of a long learning journey, where we believe the end is nothing, but the road is all. They also work in eLearning programmes, because it is never “me and the computer screen”, there is always a human face, a mentor who supports learners whenever they need. They work because instead of shoveling information into learners’ brains and asking them to regurgitate it later, we focus on critical thinking, communication, collaboration, creativity, and, most importantly, on conation. They work because we view failures as an opportunity to learn. They work because we understand that creativity and innovation is a long-term, cyclical process of small successes and frequent mistakes. They work because we do not stop the clock and distribute a test. Instead, assessment is embedded in all of our authentic tasks. This is what makes the biggest difference. Nothing is abstract - all activities are based on authentic learning principles, just like how things work in real-life. These activities help learners to explore, discuss, and meaningfully construct concepts and relationships in contexts that involve real-world problems and projects that are relevant to them.
I licensed this work under Creative Commons (CC) Attribution-NonCommercial- ShareAlike 4.0 International License (CC BY-NC-SA 4.0) so that it can be reproduced, remixed, tweaked or built upon non-commercially. Through this license, I continue offering a hand in support of open knowledge and free culture as I did with my previous two books.
My dear friend Thomas Reeves in his foreword says that the design and implementation of learning environments must be acts of “authentic creation” more than ever before: “Go Authentic: Activities that Support Learning is, as Camus put it, a “gift to the future.” A future when learning will be active rather than passive, collaborative learning will be commonplace, tasks will be as authentic as possible, and assessment will be cherished rather than dreaded. In that hopefully near future, learning events will be as well-aligned as a precision racecar, and learning outcomes will be personally and professionally empowering. Ultimately, we hope that even participants in online versions of these authentic courses will shed tears when the courses are over just as they do now on the last day of the face-to-face courses.
The need for transformational learning opportunities is evident in many fields beyond public health and pharmaceuticals. Enhancing human performance is absolutely essential if we are to meet the challenges facing humankind with respect to climate change, poverty, war, corruption, and the like. Arguably, we live in a time when education and training opportunities across all disciplines must become as transformative as the courses described in this book. To do this, the design and implementation of learning environments must be acts of “authentic creation” more than ever before. Please join us.”
When it comes to helping learners, you cannot waste their time.
Go authentic!
For free download please visit http://kartoglu.ch/goauthentic/
The book is available both in interactive PDF (38.1 MB) and ePUB3 (13.3 MB) versions.
216 pages, including a detailed review of 44 learning activities and games and 30 icebreakers and warmups..
Happy downloads...
