The data collected showed that twenty-nine programs in nineteen low-income countries were included. The managers of these programs reported that their largest and most often obstacle to the vaccination was highly related to the perceptions of population, but the majority of the program managers reported that their programs had had a positive impact on the national HPV vaccination
