Event Details

Watch the recording of this roundtable here.

PROTECT-EUROPE is an EU4Health Project that champions gender-neutral vaccination programmes in EU Member States to provide protection for everyone against cancers caused by HPV e.g. cervical, anal, penile, vaginal, vulval and oropharyngeal.

As part of the project's outputs, a series of ten masterclasses in HPV vaccination, based on the learnings from the project's Work Packages 2 and 3, will be delivered on a ‘hybrid’ basis. These masterclasses will focus on a variety of themes and topics, all connected with the project's aim of developing effective public health messaging on HPV vaccination aimed at young people and their parents or caregivers.

The first masterclass was held on the occasion of European Immunisation Week 2024, and focused on the topic of epidemiology of HPV infection and why gender-neutral vaccination is key to achieve the elimination of HPV-caused cancers.

More information on HPV and its links to cancer can be found here.
