NVI and Partners Take Major Step Toward ASEAN Vaccine Security

The National Vaccine Institute (NVI), in collaboration with the Ministry of Public Health of Thailand and the ASEAN Secretariat, organised the ASEAN Meeting on Vaccine Security and Self-Reliance (AVSSR) in Bangkok. The event brought together ASEAN member countries and global development partners to share vaccine knowledge and strengthen regional cooperation to prepare for future health threats. The meeting is part of the ASEAN Vaccine Security and Self-Reliance Strategic and Action Plan (2021-2025), which aims to build a robust vaccine network across the region. Additionally, NVI, in partnership with the International Vaccine Institute (IVI), hosted the first ASEAN Vaccine Personnel Training programme, with support from the World Bank.
