Sabin Vaccine Institute

Immunization Program

A global nonprofit organization headquartered in Washington, D.C., founded in 1993, that advances vaccine development for unmet medical needs and works to expand immunization coverage by strengthening vaccine access and public acceptance. The Sabin Vaccine Institute conducts and supports vaccine research for diseases of major public health importance that otherwise attract limited commercial investment, particularly in low- and middle-income countries, and it engages in advocacy and education to improve immunization delivery and acceptance worldwide, presenting the annual Albert B. Sabin Gold Medal to recognize major contributions to vaccinology.

Entity-backed identity for the program-kind enum value this public health program already carries, resolved to a health practice by an explicit value-to-entity map (phase 3 bucket conversion, docs\design_entity_backed_browse_buckets_20260928.md). The program-kind fact itself stays on the program unchanged.
