Dear All,
The team at Children for Health is looking to gather a review panel to contribute their expertise towards a project to revise our 10 immunisation messages for children to learn and share.
Children for Health is dedicated to the promotion of health education in developing countries, focused on developing children as agents of change and communicators of essential health messages in their families and communities.
Our health messages aim to be simple, reliable, health education messages aimed at children aged 8-14.
We created 10 messages aimed to help children understand immunisation in 2015.
We are seeking experts to help revise and strengthen these messages and ensure they are still clinically accurate and appropriate for our target age group and in these times of a global pandemic and issues of vaccine hesitancy etc,
Please contact our team if you are interested in collaborating on this project. It will involve around 4-5 rounds of feedback on 10 messages and ideas for activities (optional!) over the next couple of months.
Visit our website for more information about our organization, existing health messages, and free resources.

Thanks! Clare
