Collaborative learning is helping to make "Immunization for All" a reality. 💉🌍

With the Linked Immunisation Action Network, countries are engaging in peer-to-peer learning that allows them to share strategies, identify common challenges, and improve access to vaccines.

💡 In Tunisia, health officials preparing to introduce the HPV vaccine faced cultural sensitivities and logistical questions.

Through Linked workshops, they connected with peers from the Philippines, Mongolia, Jordan and Uzbekistan for insights on partnering with local faith leaders and educators to foster community trust.

📱 Indonesia, grappling with a 26% zero-dose rate post-pandemic, found inspiration in Sri Lanka's digital immunization registry.

This peer exchange informed Indonesia's own digital strategies to accelerate vaccine coverage.

👩‍👧 Armenia addressed caregiver knowledge gaps by learning from other countries' community engagement strategies, enhancing their approach to reach under-immunized children.

🔍 How can process mapping enhance nutrition data systems?

📊 was one of the first Scaling Up Nutrition (SUN) countries to design and implement a multisectoral nutrition information system (NIS):

📌 The Unified Nutrition Information System for Ethiopia (UNISE) tracks program implementation across several sectors that contribute to the national food and nutrition strategy.

📌 The Resource Tracking and Partner Management tool (RTPM) tracks resources and partnerships that support multisector nutrition programming.

But challenges in data utilization and data quality persist.

In a recent DataDENT blog, R4D experts dive into how process mapping, which captures user experiences and system designs, is paving the way for targeted capacity-strengthening initiatives, including tailored training and mentorship programs.
