This guidance document is directed at national authorities who are responsible for managing deployment, implementation and monitoring of COVID-19 vaccines, as well as partners who provide the required support.
As in most countries the establishment of a COVID-19 vaccine deployment and vaccination mechanism falls with the ministry of health (MoH), this guidance document is intended to support them as they develop the coordination mechanisms across all sectors of government and multistakeholders.
This national deployment vaccination plan (NDVP) guidance document provides a framework that supports countries in:
- Developing and updating their NDVP for the introduction of COVID-19 vaccines
- Designing strategies for the deployment, implementation and monitoring of the COVID-19 vaccine(s) in country
- Ensuring the plan and related financing is well aligned to other national COVID-19 recovery and response and support plans, and implementation is fully integrated into national governance mechanisms
