The evaluation, which was commissioned by UNICEF Lebanon, sought to better understand the relevance, effectiveness, efficiency and sustainability of the Immunisation Programme component of UNICEF’s Health and Nutrition Country Programme from 2013 to 2017, as highlighted in Annual Work Plans (AWPs). The formative evaluation is intended to allow UNICEF to learn from the outcomes of their collaboration with the MoPH on supporting their Expanded Programme on Immunisation (EPI) and provide nuanced recommendations to strengthen the national immunisation system and future collaboration between the MoPH and UNICEF.
The evaluation captured results across three main pillars in the UNICEF Annual Work Plans. As previously highlighted, the time period of the evaluation covered the work plans from 2013 until 2017 across the following thematic pillars of the intervention:
• Increase the routine vaccination coverage for children under five years through the provision of vaccines (including vaccination campaigns for routine immunisation as well as campaigns in prevention of a polio outbreak),
• The capacity building of staff of MoPH and implementing partners
• The provision of vaccines and cold chain supplies to MoPH and subsequently various primary health care centres and dispensaries. In addition to the technical training relevant to use these supplies/ equipment and cold chain procedures.
