Equity and Advocacy

The International Federation on Ageing has conducted significant bodies of work on adult immunization aimed at driving policy improvements by first identifying gaps in vaccine-related policies, inequities in accessing vaccination and factors that affect vaccine uptake among older adults.   

Vaccines4Life reflect the pillars of prevention, access, and equity, to ensure that immunization is a priority in the prevention strategies used to combat infectious disease, that barriers are removed to enable individuals of all ages to receive vaccinations and to reduce inequities in the administration of vaccinations across the life.
