Cold Chain Inventory in Cold Chain Inventory in PerPerúú -- 20042004
� History: Previous cold chain inventories • First: 1989
• Second: 1993 -94
� Third national cold chain inventory in Perú is conducted within the context of a renewed policy, budget and managerial MoH framework, which included a new national vaccine law
� Immunization is officially defined as a cost-effective activity of high impact in public health
� A new national immunization strategy is established: EPI recovers its status as a critical public health programme
� Technical and financial support from international cooperation
