As we approach the end of the Decade of Vaccines and with just a couple of years remaining on the Global Vaccine Action Plan (GVAP 2011-2020), a new Immunization Agenda 2030 is needed for the entire health and development community – one that re-affirms the benefits of vaccines and immunizations for a healthier, more secure and prosperous world through their contributions to the achievements of Universal Health Coverage (UHC) and Sustainable Development (SDG).

An initial attempt to assemble ideas, thoughts and content for an Immunization Agenda 2030 is now available for broad review. It is being shared as a ‘draft zero’ and is offered as a starting point for further co-creation and co-development with immunization specialists, broader health experts, and wider health stakeholders at country, regional and global levels.
