Abstract

About The Transvaxx project aims to co-create intervention strategies with community and public health stakeholders that proactively mitigate vaccine hesitancy and maximize uptake of COVID-19 vaccination in Belgium. Mixed methods will be used, combining (i) public health stakeholders analysis (including semi-structured interviews with them) with (ii) Online social listening of vaccine narratives (iii) on-site ethnographic research and (iv) the co-development of Living-Labs where an intervention strategy to mitigate vaccine hesitancy will be co-developed together with stakeholders.
