About
The Vax-Action DRIVE project aims to develop, implement, and evaluate an intervention to promote vaccine acceptance for influenza among adults aged 65 and older.
The intervention is based on two main components:
- An educational video
- A guided group discussion lasting approximately 60 minutes
The objectives are to increase vaccine confidence, knowledge about vaccination, and vaccination intention. The project is designed to be replicable, culturally adapted, and rigorously evaluated through a comparative methodology (control vs. intervention groups). It involves partners from five European countries.
