The Guide de dialogue communautaire (Community Dialogue Guide) and its companion Boite á images (Images Box) are two innovative tools designed to enhance community engagement and foster COVID-19 vaccine acceptance. Developed by the Breakthrough ACTION in Guinea, these practical resources can be used to strengthen vaccination adherence.

Together, these tools empower communities to make informed decisions and contribute to the collective effort to overcome challenges posed by the pandemic. The tools can be adapted to other vaccines or health topics and are only available in French.
