About the Scholarship

The Sabin Vaccine Institute is a leading advocate for expanding vaccine access and uptake globally, advancing vaccine research and development, and amplifying vaccine knowledge and innovation.

Through our Vaccine Acceptance and Demand initiative, we aim to increase acceptance of vaccines and immunization among communities in low- and middle-income countries.

Our programs invest in research to further explore the social and behavioral dynamics of vaccine acceptance, including the use of social media interventions to address vaccine acceptance and demand barriers.
