Evaluation of the Immunization Practices Advisory Committee (2015): Report

WHO established the Immunization Practices Advisory Committee in 2010 under the auspices of its Expanded Programme on Immunization in order to provide independent evidence- and experience-based advice and recommendations to strengthen and improve the delivery of immunization programmes at the country level. In 2014, the Immunization Practices Advisory Committee shifted to a new operating modality and it was considered timely and relevant that the Committee’s mandate, structure, evolution and processes be re-examined and evaluated to ensure its continued relevance and utility.
