Global Vaccine Action Plan

The Global Vaccine Action Plan (GVAP) is a strategic initiative launched by the World Health Organization (WHO) to improve vaccination rates worldwide. Its primary aim is to prevent millions of deaths by ensuring that everyone, particularly children, has access to essential vaccines. The plan outlines specific goals and targets to enhance vaccine coverage, strengthen immunization systems, and encourage collaboration among countries and organizations. By promoting vaccines, the GVAP seeks to eliminate vaccine-preventable diseases and ultimately improve global health outcomes. It emphasizes equity, innovation, and sustained commitment to vaccination as a critical public health strategy.
