Immunization

Our Activities

GHAI draws upon our budget advocacy framework and successes in increasing domestic financing for preventing epidemics to supports CSOs in these countries to:

• Engage political decision-makers about the need for sustainable financing for immunization and primary health care.
• Build government, civil society and media capacity to advocate for domestic health financing.
• Demonstrate demand for investments in immunization and primary health care to increase immunization coverage and reduce the number of zero-dose children through media coverage and public discourse.
• Develop political strategies to remove bottlenecks affecting the allocation and spending of immunization and primary health care funds.
• Track budget writing, allocation and spending to inform advocacy.

Where we work:

Nigeria, Ghana, Madagascar, Bangladesh and Pakistan

Expected Outcome/Our Impact

• Increased domestic resources mobilized for primary health care and immunization.
• More efficient use of domestic and donor funds to reach zero-dose children to increase immunization coverage.
• Improve transparency and accountability for domestic and donor resources allocated to the immunization program.
