European active citizens for vaccination - 2019

Improve the awareness on the importance of vaccination across Europe
Project

Leaders and activists engaged in social, civic and patients associations, parents, teachers, health workers, bloggers and popularizers: everyone can commit to disseminate correct scientific information, ready to defend the importance of vaccination from the wave of misinformation that is being spreading for some years

Active Citizenship Network (ACN), is deeply committed to contribute to raise awareness about the importance of vaccination across Europe and to shift to a common knowledge linked to a life-course vaccination approach: immunization is vital to prevent diseases and protect life.

For this reason in the second half of 2019 ACN will realize a social media communication campaign that can support and spread this core messages: the idea is to produce a video where representatives of civic and patients associations, national and EU experts from academics, and healthcare professionals send a unified, clear and strong message on the importance of vaccination directly to patients and citizens.

Moreover, with the cooperation of its constituency of national citizens’ organizations in various European countries, ACN will produce an EU Report on the state of the art of national immunization policies – from a civic point of view. The objective is to provide institutional and health care stakeholders with: the strengths/weaknesses of national policies and plans on vaccination for each selected country; the common elements or specificities that affect a greater or lower vaccination coverage, vaccines hesitancy, etc. in the different countries.
