Vaccination strategies to identify and reach zero-dose and under-immunized children in crisis-affected states in Sudan: a qualitative study
Our study underscored the complexity of vaccinating zero-dose and under-immunized children in crisis-affected states of Sudan. Further research is needed to evaluate these practices and the role of non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and community engagement in improving vaccination coverage. Furthermore, exploring alternative funding methods and using geographic information systems (GIS) could enhance vaccination data and address funding limitations.
