SAGE (Strategic Advisory Group of Experts)

The Strategic Advisory Group of Experts (SAGE) is a group of independent experts that advises the World Health Organization (WHO) on vaccines and immunization. SAGE evaluates new vaccines, makes recommendations on their use, and helps countries develop vaccination strategies to improve public health. By providing scientific insights and evidence-based guidance, SAGE plays a crucial role in enhancing vaccine effectiveness and safety, ultimately supporting global health efforts to prevent diseases and save lives. Their work is especially important during outbreaks and in planning immunization programs for various populations.
