Program Kind

Program kind sorts health programs by the type of effort each one is, such as an eradication campaign, a vaccination drive or a screening program. Wikipedia describes the Global Polio Eradication Initiative plainly as an "international public health initiative," a kind distinct from a single national vaccination scheme. This dimension lets a visitor compare programs of the same basic shape.
