Highlights

The Real-time Monitoring of Vaccination Campaigns (RT-VaMA) initiative in Papua New Guinea (PNG) represents a pioneering effort to enhance vaccination coverage and data management through the use of real-time technology. Launched in collaboration with the World Health Organization (WHO), UNICEF, ONA, and the National Department of Health (NDOH), RT-VaMA aims to address the challenges faced by PNG's healthcare system in tracking and improving immunization rates. This case study delves into the context, implementation, and outcomes of RT-VaMA, providing a comprehensive overview of the process and its impact on vaccination campaigns in a complex and resource-limited setting.
