Community-based approaches in Driving Vaccination Success in Flanders 💉 The success of Belgium's vaccination strategy in Flanders hinged on addressing vaccine hesitancy. Key to this success were intermediaries such as pharmacists, primary healthcare providers, and social workers. Their local networks and knowledge proved invaluable in supporting both prevention and vaccination efforts. By managing information dissemination and innovating their outreach strategies within their neighborhoods, these actors made a significant impact. Their efforts underscore the importance of community-based approaches in public health initiatives. This is a critical demonstration of how local engagement can drive national, robust success! 🤝 📖Read more examples: https://lnkd.in/g4bTGynX #RobustGovernance #PublicHealth #VaccinationStrategy #CommunityEngagement

The quarterly rebalancing of VDAB10 is now effective, with several important changes to the basket: * The inclusion of Toncoin, a cryptocurrency pioneered by the encrypted messaging platform Telegram and now managed by the TON Foundation, introduces a robust payment solution known for its speed and low transaction fees into the VDAB10. Similarly, the addition of Shiba Inu Coin, a token that has garnered a massive following and sparked significant interest in meme-based cryptocurrencies, provides investors with exposure to emerging trends within the digital asset market. ‍ * Polkadot and Tron have been automatically excluded from the basket due to their current market capitalization rankings, which no longer place them within the top ten. This automatic adjustment is part of Valour’s rule-based methodology, ensuring that the VDAB10 ETP remains a passive, yet precise reflection of the top digital assets. ‍ The current composition of the basket is as follows: Bitcoin 30%, Ethereum 30%, Binance BNB 12.92%, Solana 9.85%, XRP 4.28%, Dogecoin 3.28%, Toncoin 2.82%, Cardano 2.54%, Shiba Inu 2.25%, Avax 2.06%
