ADB's SECURE Webinar Series
The Supporting Enhanced COVID-19 Vaccination and Post COVID-19 Health Security Response in Southeast Asia (SECURE) Webinar Series is a platform to promote innovative approaches and best practices for COVID-19 vaccination programs among Southeast Asia (SEA) developing member countries (DMCs) of the Asian Development Bank (ADB). The webinar series is supported by the ongoing ADB technical assistance (TA) on Supporting Enhanced COVID-19 Vaccination and Post COVID-19 Health Security Response in SEA, and it serves as a venue for knowledge and information exchange among governments, the private sector, development partners, CSO networks and other key stakeholders.
The core messages of the series are: (1) immunization is still the most critical public health intervention for COVID-19 control and prevention, and (2) COVID-19 vaccines must be treated as a global public good. Summary proceedings will be produced after each webinar and will be shared through designated platforms.
