CHWs & Immunization: Evidence Brief

 

As trusted community members, Community Health Workers (CHWs) bridge gaps in access, build vaccine confidence, and extend services to the hardest-to-reach.

This brief provides an overview of evidence from countries including Kenya, Uganda, and Malawi shows that CHW-led interventions can dramatically improve vaccine uptake while reducing costs.

With proper training and support, CHWs can safely administer vaccines, generate demand, and ensure continuity of care—making them a cost-effective strategy for resilient health systems.
