Since its launch, LNCT has continuously examined its approach to engaging and supporting country members to respond to transition-related challenges. Earlier this year, and prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation (BMGF) commissioned an external assessment of LNCT to identify core strengths, challenges, and future opportunities. The assessment produced two key recommendations: 1) conduct a strategic planning process to clearly define the Network’s scope and focus; and, 2) strengthen its virtual support to transitioning countries. As COVID-19 has introduced unprecedented challenges that are forcing immunization programs around the world to develop innovative and unproven solutions, the peer-learning approach can accelerate the process of identifying and applying better practices. In this new blog, we outline our three priorities for implementing the assessment recommendations to maximize LNCT’s effectiveness during the pandemic and beyond.
