Use of strategic information – LLIN targeting in Kenya, 2010 A) A 3D population map showing areas where Pf PR 2-10 was <1% (pink) and >1% (dark red) B) Map showing percentage ITN use from low C) Population that need LLINs in areas to be targeted based on a criteria of >1% Pf PR 2-10 and >1 person per square km (green) and those additional who will need LLIN if the whole country was targeted (pink) From 16 to 6 million nets, or US$ 55 million difference in costs of LLLINs at the time
Use of strategic information – Tanzania, 2008 NSP 2008-2013 LLINs everywhere! MARA climate suitability map
Use of strategic information – Tanzania, 2018 Reduction in prevalence until 2019, CM and LARV not enough to reduce prevalence but enough to maintain low prevalence until 2020. In practice ITN distribution might need to be considered in specific areas. Reduction in prevalence until 2019, CM and LSM not enough to reduce prevalence and ITN continuous needs to be considered Annual ITNs maintaining coverage of 70% with increase in CM to 85% reduces the Prevalence % trend by stratum prevalence in moderate strata by xx% High reduction in prevalence in high strata with CM, ITNs, IRS (LAKE) IPTsc might add additional impact With CM and LARV only prevalence is increasing in this stratum ITN distribution need to follow epidemiological strata to achieve decrease in all urban districts
What is new in the analysis approach? Current Monitoring Country NSP development, adoption and action National and status • Re-stratification (usually province and Strategic Evaluation review occasionally district) Plan • Update vision, mission, objectives and goals (e.g. MIS, (e.g. MTR, • Building the right data platforms and databases programme MPR, impact (Vision, • Strategic intervention approaches data, routine evaluations mission, goals, • HIS data etc.) etc.) Performance framework objectives, • Better stratification with improved spatial resolution interventions, • Action plan action plan, • Resource mobilization (funding need and gap) cost, funds) • Optimized intervention mixes guided by a robust analysis • Implementation of anticipated impact • • • Low data Low quality reviews No clear approach to stratification and intervention coverage (space mixes • Better tools to cost funding need and gap more precisely • and time) Largely qualitative • Selection of interventions not determined by • • Poor data quality No clear pathway of knowledge of likely impact • Better measurement of progress, including improved MPRs action based on • • Weak capacity recommendations Performance framework underpinned by weak data for data analysis systems and impact evaluations • Does not cover • • Adhoc use of adequately the Action plan not always subnational and often is top data relevant health down and malariacentric • It is not about perfection, but improving things! system areas • • Poor tracking of Approaches to estimating funding need and gap is • programmatic Mostly top down inconsistent and imprecise activities and nor based on subnational reviews
Strategic use of information – purpose and process 1 Reviewing current status situation analysis – national, province and district (or equivalent) 4 2 Measuring Planning progress and impact of more efficient and revised strategic targeted future (subnational (district) approach through level stratification and routine, national, district routine mix of intervention) surveillance and surveys 3 Operationalizing through subnational (district) operational plans, village level action
