What we know: Effective provider-parent communication can improve childhood vaccination uptake in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs).
What is missing: Globally, communication interventions to improve vaccination uptake have been neglected and existing studies are often not applicable to LMICs. More about background.
What this project contributes: COMMVAC is a multi-partner research project that aims to build research evidence for improving communication about childhood vaccinations with parents and communities in LMICs. More about research activities. More about the collaborating partners
