The purpose of the IA2030 Framework for Action is to describe how four critical operational elements enable a successful translation of the strategy into its implementation phase to achieve the IA2030 vision. These include:

 

– regional and national strategies that prioritize actions for operational planning;

 

– mechanisms to ensure appropriate ownership and accountability (O&A);

 

– monitoring and evaluation (M&E) frameworks to guide and monitor country implementation;

 

– communication and advocacy to create the necessary messaging and reinforce the required actions by all stakeholders throughout the decade.

 

Implementation of IA2030 will initially focus on a comprehensive response to the COVID-19 pandemic. An urgent priority is the rapid and equitable scale-up of COVID-19 vaccines in all countries as well as collective action to catch up on missed vaccinations and rebuild essential services. 

 

Rebuilding of immunization programmes will make a major contribution to the strengthening of primary health care systems. Effective childhood and adult immunization programmes, including COVID-19, will lie at the heart of resilient and sustainable primary health care systems that will be central to future global health security.

 

As a living document, the Framework for Action will be updated from time to time to reflect further input. Feel free to send your feedback to info@ia2030.org and check back here to see the latest thinking.
