As WHO and UNICEF are collecting the JRF for the year 2015, results are showing that there were still 11 countries (out of 53) in the WHO EURO Region declaring not to have a National Immunization Technical Advisory Group (NITAG) in 2015. Recently, Sweden established its NITAG (http://www.nitag-resource.org/news-and-events/news/82-sweden-establishes-its-nitag), leaving only Italy and Norway as the two High income countries without a NITAG.

More information on NITAGs establishement and strengthening in all WHO regions are published in the NITAG Resource Center. This dedicated platform centralizes all information related to NITAG (recommendations, agenda, background documents) as well as scientific articles on immunization.
