Global Vaccine Action Plan. Decade of vaccine collaboration.

In May 2011, a report by the Secretariat on the global immunization

vision and strategy was noted by the Sixty-fourth World Health

Assembly (WHA)/ During the discussions the vision for the Decade

of Vaccines (2011–2020) and the development of a Global Vaccine

Action Plan were welcomed. Subsequently, the Executive Board at

its 130th session in January 2012 considered the Global Vaccine

Action Plan and provided guidance. The Board also adopted resolution

EB130.R12 on World Immunization Week. In May 2012,

the Sixty-fifth World Health Assembly reviewed the draft Global

Vaccine Action Plan (GVAP) presented by the secretariat (A65/22)

and endorsed the plan, as proposed (WHA65.17).
