  • Factors affecting the implementation of childhood vaccination communication strategies in Nigeria

    Open AccessAfiong Oku, Angela Oyo‐Ita et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2017

    Communication activities are a crucial element of immunization programmes. It is therefore important for policy makers and programme managers to understand the barriers and facilitators affecting the delivery of vaccination communication so as to be able to implement communication interventions more effectively

  • The comprehensive ‘Communicate to Vaccinate’ taxonomy of communication interventions for childhood vaccination in routine and campaign contexts

    Open AccessJessica Kaufman, Heather Ames et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2017

    This taxonomy provides a standardised way to think and speak about vaccination communication. It is categorised by purpose to help conceptualise communication interventions as potential solutions to address needs or problems. It can be utilised by programme planners, implementers, researchers and funders to see the range of communication interventions used in practice, facilitate evidence synthesis and identify evidence gaps

  • Mapping how information about childhood vaccination is communicated in two regions of Cameroon

    Open AccessHeather Ames, Diangha Mabel Njang et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2015

    By identifying the interventions used in Cameroon and developing an intervention map, we allowed stakeholders to see where they were concentrating their communication efforts and where gaps exist, allowing them to reflect on whether changes are needed to the communication strategies they are using

  • Do existing research summaries on health systems match immunisation managers' needs in middle- and low-income countries? Analysis of Gavi health systems strengthening support

    Open AccessXavier Bosch‐capblanch, Xavier Bosch-Capblanch et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2011

    Relevant, high quality research summaries were found for few of the topics identified by managers. Few proposals used national surveys evidence to identify barriers to vaccination. Researchers generating or adapting evidence about health systems need to be more responsive to managers' needs. Use of available evidence from local or national surveys should be strongly encouraged

    Simon Lewin, Susan Munabi-Babigumira et al.ARTICLECochrane Database of Systematic…2010

    BACKGROUND: Lay health workers (LHWs) are widely used to provide care for a broad range of health issues. Little is known, however, about the effectiveness of LHW interventions. OBJECTIVES: To assess the effects of LHW interventions in primary and community health care on maternal and child health and the management of infectious diseases. SEARCH STRATEGY: For the current version of this review we searched The Cochrane Central Register of Control…
