Community

Boost fosters a global community that enables immunization professionals to connect with peers and experts, learn skills that build capacity and advance careers, and equips professionals to lead immunization programs. Boost’s online and offline opportunities connect immunization professionals to peers, support, and resources to learn and grow. Boost programs are designed to deliver meaningful leadership training and support networks that go beyond skills-based learning to create resilient, resourceful immunization professionals around the world.

  • Mission: To foster a global community that enables immunization professionals to connect with peer and experts, learn skills that build capacity and advance careers, and lead immunization programs in challenging contexts.

  • Vision: A world in which every immunization professional is empowered to advance in their careers and accelerate change in their communities.

 

As part of the Global Mass Vaccination Site Collaborative, the Boost Community will host biweekly live engagements to explore various aspects of mass vaccination sites and best practices across countries. Through these engagements, we’ll be exploring topics such as funding, establishing, and managing sites. Insights from these sessions will be used to develop new tools and resources needed by the community and others involved in mass vaccination site operations.
