The project aims to support the National Primary Health Care Development Agency (NPHCDA) in the Polio outbreak response in security-compromised inaccessible and partially accessible settlements, with GIS tracking using GTS, to track the vaccination teams during Polio campaign implementation;
Update and manage the Master List of Settlements (MLoS) across all identified priority Local Government Areas (LGAs) across the 8 States
Develop micro-plan templates and ward-level maps for each round of a campaign across all priority LGAs in the states
Train the LGAs teams on the use of maps and tracker handling
Track (using GTS and ODK) all special interventions teams during the implementation
Carry out Geospatial Post implementation coverage analysis and provide feedback at the State and LGA levels
Deployment of technical teams at state and LGA levels
eHA's Role
Provision of equipment for GIS tracking (android phones, laptops, charging boxes, generators, etc) and human resources to support the tracking of campaign implementation activities during the Polio Special Intervention campaigns in the 7 priority states
Building technical capacity of the LGA teams
Upload and transmission of tracking data to the GTS dashboard for data analysis and visitation coverage reporting
Provision of daily tracking coverage data to key government and implementing partner stakeholders during review meetings at both the state and local government levels.
