Under the auspices of the Minister of Health, Türkiye, a meeting of National Immunization Programme Managers from 37 Member States in the WHO European Region will be held on 1–2 March 2023, in İzmir, Türkiye. The Immunization Programme Managers’ Meeting (PMM) is organized biennially by the Vaccine- preventable Diseases and Immunization Programme (VPI) of the WHO Regional Office for Europe for all 53 Member States in the WHO European Region. The PMM that was planned for March 2020 could not be held due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Implementation of the European Immunization Agenda 2030, which was approved by Member States during the 71 st session of the WHO Regional Committee for Europe in September 2021, is one of the priorities in the WHO European Region. To meet the needs of Member States, three subregional PMM took place between October and November 2022. These subregional meetings have allowed participants a better opportunity to interact with each other and the staff from WHO and other partners on immunization topics of national and regional relevance. The objectives of this meeting are to: 1. Present the European Immunization Agenda 2030 (EIA2030) and discuss the implementation in countries in line with the strategic priorities of EIA2030, with specific emphasis to monitoring, evaluation and accountability framework including addressing immunization inequity at subnational/community level and devise locally tailored interventions to achieve and sustain high vaccination coverage; 2. Discuss and share experiences on specific immunization challenges, including poliovirus containment and strengthening vaccine-preventable disease surveillance including environmental surveillance for poliovirus, digitalization roadmap for immunization UN City, Marmorvej 51 Tel.: +45 45 33 70 00 Email: [email protected] DK-2100 Copenhagen Ø Fax: +45 45 33 70 01 Website: https://www.who.int/europe Denmark  information systems, strengthening vaccine safety systems, maturity of National Immunization Technical Advisory Groups on using a systematic approach to develop evidence-informed recommendations on immunization policies and hepatitis B control and role of serosurveys; 3.
