About the Project

GAVI – Zero Dose project – Globally, two out of three Zero Dose-ZD (children who haven’t received any dose of DPT containing vaccine) children live in households below the poverty line (<$1.90/day), 47% less likely to have a mother who received antenatal care and had an institutional delivery, and 33% less likely to live in a household with water and cleansing agents.

Before the COVID-19 pandemic, the number of ZD children in India stood at around 1.3 million. In 2021, the figure alarmingly went up to 2.7 million. Data from NFHS-5 reveals a troubling scenario concerning ZD children aged 12-23 months. Although, there has been a reduction in overall ZD prevalence by 4.1%, significant disparity exists in Bihar where ZD prevalence stands at 6.4%. Data indicates a slower reduction in ZD prevalence among specific demographics, including girl child, first-born child, among others. COVID-19 pandemic has critically impacted immunization programs, posing risk of reversing the gains made over decades. Bihar, despite rapid response to COVID-19 vaccination, witnessed setbacks during and immediately after the pandemic, including outbreaks of vaccine preventable diseases like Measles-Rubella.

This project aims to address these disparities, rebuild the momentum lost due to the pandemic, overcome systemic barriers aligning with national priorities / policies and together with community involvement. Key interventions identified to achieve desired outcomes include Civil Society Organization (CSO) engagement, to reduce the ZD children through community engagement, involvement of local influencers and building capacities of service providers and community-based organizations. This position will directly support CSO engagement initiative under GAVI HSS 3.0, with technical supervision through UNICEF, Bihar Office.

PCI India will intervene in 724 villages spread across 66 blocks in 15 priority districts of Bihar with support of State Health Society-Govt. of Bihar, UNICEF, WISH and other partners to A) Ensure at least 95% Full Immunization Coverage (FIC) of those eligible in the intervention geography; B) Enhance capacity of at least 90% FLW, PRI, Government staff and other influencers to identify, mobilize, and vaccinate ZD children during VHSND; and C) Establish Community Feedback Mechanism in 20% of the identified blocks in the implementing districts.
