Resource Human-centred design for tailoring immunization programmes
Purpose This document is intended to support human-centred and tailored strategies to reach under-vaccinated communities. It is designed to be:
1. People focused
2. Community centred
3. Broadly applicable
4. Adaptable to new situations
5. User friendly
Content This guide is designed to help anyone in the health and immunization system identify and address barriers or leverage drivers to immunization by locally co-designing and evaluating human-centred, tailored immunization programmes. In four stages – diagnose, design, implement and evaluate.
This guide leverages UNICEF’s Human Centred Design 4 Health and WHO’s
Tailoring Immunization Programmes (TIP) to create a consolidated and simplified strategy for evidence-based co-design suited to low-resource settings.
Expected outcomes Increased engagement of local partners and communities in understanding reasons for low uptake and co-designing, implementing, and evaluating related strategies.
Strengths Provides clear guidance on how to diagnose susceptible populations, and design and implement tailored immunization programmes
Contraints/Limitations For specific low-resource settings, added technical support may be required in the case of limited capacity or financial resources.
Why use it In specific settings with low coverage and with inequities, to work closely with local partners and community representatives to understand and address low uptake, through a practical, step-wise and evidence-driven process. Offers added benefits for generating local ownership and involvement in designing and evaluating tailored strategies.
Who should use it It is intended for immunization programme managers, partners, implementers, civil society, and others who are collecting, analysing, and using data and working together to close coverage gaps.
