Project
The overall aim of the SAFEST project is to test novel methods for mapping populations and monitoring social network and vaccination-related data. Specific objectives of the SAFEST project are:
- Pilot the use of a social network data collection software used to map social networks with members of primary schools’ parent associations.
- Investigate how anti-vaccination beliefs and attitudes are transmitted from one individual to another and whether individuals who hold similar beliefs cluster together by using Social Network Analysis (SNA).
- Experimentally test the use of peer mentors within networks for changing other members’ beliefs and attitudes towards vaccinations.
