27 NATIONAL IMMUNIZATION TECHNICAL ADVISORY GROUPS (NITAG) A NITAG is a technical resource providing guidance to national policy-makers and programme managers to enable them to make evidence-based immunization-related policy and programme decisions. (World Health Organization May 2014) WHO has placed a high priority on the development of national decision making process and capabilities. A major advantage of a NITAG is the credibility of the process...a standing NITAG will facilitate a more comprehensive and cohesive country immunization program perspective (Duclos P Vaccine 2010) NACI recognized globally as one of 15 well-established NITAGs 27
