About the Seminar Series

A vaccine is not merely a healthcare product; it is also a strategic component of a country’s national, economic, and biological security. The COVID-19 pandemic demonstrated that technology and manufacturing infrastructure alone are not sufficient for a rapid and effective response without a coordinated network of stakeholders.

This seminar series has been designed to build capacity, promote awareness, and establish a common language among the key stakeholders of Iran’s vaccine ecosystem. The seminars provide a platform for exchanging experiences, examining challenges, and presenting practical solutions for the development of the country’s vaccine ecosystem.
