Abstract

Highlights • High HPV vaccination coverage is critical for preventing cervical cancer worldwide. • School-based programs effectively deliver vaccines to adolescents attending school. • We propose ways to ensure out-of-school girls have equitable access to HPV vaccines. • Important to quantify out-of-school girls and research barriers to HPV vaccination. • To increase uptake, consider targeted communication, outreach and integrated programs.
