Routine immunisation Not Applicable
Conditions
Interventions
There is a control province and two intervention provinces, where sites will be stratified and then randomly selected for inclusion in the intervention strength study based on immunisation coverage an
another M4H province selected to assess effects of M4H geospatial data interventions without gender, namely Lomami
and a control site to compare both M4H sites, namely Kasai Central. In addition, the protocol includes prioritization and segmentation of primary research participants, Essential Programme for Immuni

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Measured at the end of the study: 1. Acceptance of M4H geospatial data in micro planning and macro planning- measured as the percent of Provinces and Health Zones EPI Managers who state that they intend to use M4H geospatial data in EPI programme planning and implementation 2. Use of M4H geospatial data in micro planning and macro-planning - measured as the percent of Health Zone EPI Managers who include the M4H geospatial data in their micro plans 3. Use of M4H data in immunisation programme delivery - measured as the percent of Health Area EPI supervisors and vaccinators who use the M4H geospatial data to manage the implementation of the routine immunisation programme/ all eligible Health Area EPI supervisors and vaccinators 4. Effects of M4H data on immunisation programme outcomes - measured as change in immunisation coverage and equity through secondary analyses of immunisation survey data from baseline to end-line (pre/ post-intervention) in Health Areas as correlated to the percentages of acceptance and use of M4H geospatial data 5. Cost-effectiveness of M4H data on immunisation programme outcomes - measured in Lives Saved using the Lives Saved Tool and Disability-Adjusted Life-years alongside change in immunisation coverage and equity through secondary analyses of immunisation survey data from baseline to end-line (pre/ post-intervention) in Health Areas as correlated to the percentages of acceptance and use of M4H geospatial data | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Gender-associated affects in the creation, acceptance, and use of M4H geospatial data- measured through a Rapid Ethnographic Study of the gender intervention and through gender-related questions and disaggregation of respondents by gender as correlated to the percentages of acceptance and use of M4H geospatial data at the end of the study | — |
