Digital transformation and the Immunization agenda 2030
Digital transformation is the intentional, systematic implementation of integrated digital applications that change how governments plan, execute, measure and monitor programmes. This transformation can accelerate progress towards the Immunization agenda 2030, which aims to ensure that everyone, everywhere, at every age, fully benefits from vaccines. (1) Here we describe how digital transformation can help achieve equitable immunization outcomes, and outline recommendations for governments and global partners to ensure that children in low- and middle-income countries benefit fairly.
