Abstract
After five years of deployment, the participation rate in the Vaud colorectal cancer (CRC) screening program remains below projected targets. It was found that the communication tools made available to the population did not provide explicit recommendations regarding how to participate. To this end, Unisanté led a project between 2022 and 2023 to increase awareness and widely disseminate tools specifically designed with the target population. The intention was to provide decision-support tools (I decide to participate) and guidance in the system (in what way) to improve participation by the population targeted by the Vaud CRC screening program. This project incorporated the principles of proportionate universalism, that is to say, adapting screening methods to the specific needs of population sub-groups, such as those in a disadvantaged socio-economic position with low or very low levels of health literacy.
