Lead Consultant - Rapid Community Coverage Assessment

Announcement Description

The Royal Government of Cambodia (RGC) has received vaccine and financial support from Gavi through the Ministry of Health (MoH). The National Immunization Program (NIP), under the National Maternal and Child Health Center (NMCHC), manages these efforts with support from provincial health departments (PHDs), operational districts (ODs), and community networks. Despite over 90% national immunization coverage, marginalized groups—such as urban poor populations—continue to face limited access to vaccines.

The Reproductive Health Association of Cambodia (RHAC), in collaboration with the National Immunization Program (NIP) and partner NGOs, is implementing the GAVI-funded project to increase immunization coverage, focusing on zero-dose children under one year old living in urban poor areas. The RCCA will provide essential data on current immunization coverage and identify gaps in reaching zero-dose children, ensuring more effective outreach efforts.

RHAC targets zero-dose children in five ODs in Phnom Penh and one OD in Siem Reap province. The RCCA questionnaire has been developed and finalized in collaboration with NIP and participating NGOs, ensuring alignment with national immunization objectives.
