Vaccination coverage baseline survey among internally displaced children in Buhima and Mugunga health areas of Goma and Karisimbi health zones, Nord-Kivu Province, Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) 2024
To estimate the percentage of zero-dose children in the population of IDP camps and the resident population in adjacent urban areas of Buhima and Mugunga health areas, in order to estimate resource needs for a subsequent vaccination campaign.
The indicators from this baseline vaccine coverage aided us to provide and indication of vaccines needed for the intervention and will help to assess the impact of intervention in terms of coverage. There are no clear targets for what an adequate vaccine coverage in these situations (muti-antigen campaign in IDP contexts) would be. For this reason, the results of this survey, together with the results of a post vaccination coverage survey, will help to gather indicators to better understand what can be expected from these interventions, in terms of reduction of percentage of zero dose children.
