Through our work in more than 70 countries, PATH and our partners empower people to achieve their full potential.

PATH's Vaccine Access and Delivery Global Program supports the integration of vaccines for public health impact and disease control in developing countries by focusing on activities that facilitate vaccine introduction and widespread use, such as determining disease burden, conducting clinical trials, establishing the health economics of vaccine use, raising awareness of disease burden and the impact of vaccination, increasing the availability of technologies through licensing and commercialization, and advocating for appropriate policies. In addition, the program implements activities that improve the accessibility of high-quality immunization services including training, supervision, health information systems, immunization safety, logistics and communication.
