The Economics of Vaccines and Immunisation in Africa

The EVIA programme builds the capacity and confidence of sub–Saharan African policymakers and immunisation managers:
  • To assess the costs, consequences and value for money of vaccines through economic evaluation
  • To make evidence–based decisions around national immunisation programmes
Throughout our six–part programme delegates gain a solid foundational understanding of why evidence–based decision–making about vaccination programmes is important and their scope for improving current vaccination processes. From here, we build the knowledge and skillsets needed by policymakers and immunization managers to facilitate these improvements.

Learning Objectives

Understanding the core concepts of economic evaluation
Understanding how to use economic evaluation to enhance prioritisation of healthcare spending and deliver the best overall health benefits and value for money
Understanding how to design, conduct and interpret economic evaluations to capture the many different consequences associated with vaccines and immunisation programmes
Recognising the unique properties of vaccines
