  • Title: Resolution passed on 24 October 1985 [on child immunization].
    Author: League of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies, International Federation of National Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies.

    Abstract:
    In its Resolution passed on October 24, 1985, the League of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies recognized its unique position to play a role in strengthening the provision and utilization of national immunization programs. The League of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies appreciates that an involvement with national immunization programs would add substance to previous resolutions in support of primary health care, would complement recent initiatives directed toward nutrition and diarrheal diseases, and would strengthen the emergency and relief responses of national socieities. It invites national societies to determine ways in which they could become more actively involved in the control of vaccine-preventable diseases through their participation in national immunization programs, based on their existing resources and current activities, and requests the Secretary-General of the League identify ways of stimulating and supporting the activities of national societies for the control of vaccine-preventable diseases and to ensure that such activities are coordinated with those of the World Health Organization, the UN International Chidren's Emergency Fund, and other organizations involved with the control of vaccine-preventable diseases.
