The overall goal of the conference is to increase awareness about the importance of achieving and maintaining high childhood immunization coverage, particularly in difficult to reach populations, in order to reach the European targets for the control of vaccine preventable diseases.
The Conference would like to bring together senior national public health experts including national immunisation program managers and national epidemiologists from EU/EEA and EU candidate and potential candidate countries, furthermore representatives of professional associations and non-government organisations with stakes in childhood immunisation.
