Masterclasses

The PROTECT-EUROPE project coordinated ten masterclasses in HPV vaccination. These classes were focused on public health messaging and how to more effectively target young people, their parents and caregivers.

Each masterclass included case studies on successful delivery of HPV immunisation to a target population. They explored the most impactful communication strategies and the most creative ways to reach marginalised communities. These classes were structured to accommodate diverse learning preferences, whether face-to-face or more flexible online learning.

Don't miss this opportunity to discover new and improved communication strategies to engage with young people most in need of HPV vaccination. See below the full list of our masterclasses and access each masterclass' recording and follow-up survey for the participants.
