Are you committed to improving adult immunisation? Are you an individual or part of a team with a new and exciting idea for an innovative adult immunisation program?

The infrastructure and incentives that are often provided to support childhood immunisation are not always available for adult immunisation. In addition, finding contact points with adult patients to prompt discussion around immunisation is not always easy.

The GSK Adult Immunisation Grants  aim to improve awareness of, access to, and implementation of adult immunisation in Australia, and ultimately to improve adult health. The Grants have been designed to support new and/or ongoing innovative ‘programs’ and to share ideas so that they can be replicated in other primary care practices and organisations around Australia.

In 2011 four GSK Adult Immunisation Grants ($20,000 each) will be awarded to support innovative proposals that meet pre-determined criteria agreed on by an independent panel of expert judges.
