In August 2014, the Ministry of Health held a workshop to discuss strategies for achieving increased coverage of Human Papillomavirus (HPV) immunisation in the future.

This document outlines a plan for progressing and revitalising the HPV immunisation programme for 12-year-old girls. The plan uses the underlying principles of the Ministry’s modified four-point action plan, Plan, Engage, Promote and Monitor, and the World Health Organization's Global Vaccine Action Plan (GVAP).

The Ministry has adopted these plans and applied these models in order to achieve the new HPV immunisation coverage target of 75 percent for all 12-year-old girls by December 2017.
