About us
The Polio Toolkit is a web-based repository of Social and Behavior Change (SBC) and Digital Community Engagement (DCE) resources, designed to enhance the sharing of information and lessons learned among the Global Polio Eradication Initiative (GPEI), local partners, organizations, and frontline workers dedicated to eradicating polio. The toolkit provides evidence-based strategies for addressing misinformation, fostering vaccine confidence, and leveraging digital platforms for community engagement. It also includes cutting-edge communication guidance for the introduction of the novel oral polio vaccine type 2 (nOPV2). Managed by UNICEF as a GPEI partner, the toolkit serves as a comprehensive platform for effective polio communication strategies in both digital and offline environments.

The eLearning courses provide training support to polio endemic /outbreak and high-risk priority countries.
The eLearning platform will not replace face-to-face or in-depth thematic trainings but will compliment these trainings and allow the learner to gain additional information while working at their own pace.
