PERCH Kick – OFF Meeting – December 2022 – Brussels

Project PERCH brings together 18 European countries and 34 partner organizations with the objective of contributing to the implementation of Europe’s Beating Cancer Plan. PERCH aligns with the World Health Organization’s (WHO) “90-70-90” strategy, aiming to achieve at least 90% HPV vaccination coverage among girls, and potentially boys, by the age of 15 years.

Project objectives are:

  • Improve capacities of Member States to plan and implement HPV vaccination campaigns by sharing knowledge and experience.
  • Improve data and monitoring system on HPV vaccination and HPV screening.
  • Improve knowledge and awareness on HPV-related disease and prevention in specific target groups (adolescent girls and boys).
  • Improve knowledge and abilities for healthcare professionals in HPV vaccine communication.
