    1 BackgroundProject Location

    Nigeris a landlocked Sahelian country that is ranked third from the last on the 2010 Human

    Development Index list of 169 countries1, with 69 percent ofits population living below the

    poverty line.2 Like the rest of the Sahel, Nigerhas a long history of endemic hungercharacterized by seasonal fluctuations and geographic variation.

    In 2005, a severe drought resulted in a famine that affected nearly 3 million people andexacerbated the already fragile health and nutritional status of the country withdisproportional suffering among women and children. While the current crop harvests haveameliorated some of the immediate concerns, many areas do not have transitional support or

    programs to ensure adequate coping mechanisms, particularly in the areas targeted by thisproject.

    In 2007, in the aftermath of the Nutritional crisis, Relief International started a four yearUSAID Funded Child Survival Project in Konni District.

    The project Intervention Zone is located in the southwestern areat of the Tahoua region and is417 kilometers to the east from the capital Niamey covering 5,317 square miles.

    Characteristics of the Target Population

    At the Project Start up in 2007, The Konni Department has an estimated 428,623 individualswith the following repartition

    3:

    Age Group Population

    0-11 months 24,200

    12-59 months 59,124

    Pregnant woman 20,445

    Woman of reproductive age 91,297

    It is fast growing population with 3.3% annual increase4

    and in 2011, Konni total populationis estimated at 478687 , 93057 U5 children and 101960 women of reproductive age. Hausa

    and Peulh are the 2 main ethnic groups.

    National Standards/Policies Regarding Maternal and Child health

    The Nigerhealth system has been engaged in the reduction of poverty and the promotion ofdevelopment in relationship to the Millennium Development Goals and National Health Plans

    reflect that engagement. Niger is currently validation the 2nd

    Cycle of a four Year HealthPlan 2011- 2015 that aims to contribute to the reduction of maternal and child mortality by

    building on existing capacity to improve the efficiency and quality of the health system7.

    Building on the national planning process, those involved in the ongoing decentralizationprocess have also developed five-year Regional and District Health Plans.

    A Free Access Policy to Health care for Under five children and Pregnant women wasadopted by GON since 2007 that resulted in Increase Health Services Demand for these age

    groups while Medical supplies and staffing still lacking.

    In 2008 the Ministry of Health developed a National Child Survival Strategy whichincludesincreased access to health services through community-based management of malaria,

    pneumonia and diarrhea. Furthermore, this new strategy promotes the increased availability ofcompetent personnel, an effective system of supplying essential drugs and equipment,

    adequate logistics, strong supervision and a viable monitoring system as critical factors in asuccessful Child Survival Strategy.

    The Child Survival Project

    The goal of the Healthy Start Child Survival project is to reduce morbidity and mortality rates

    of mothers and children under five years of age through strengthening community basedhealth care services and information; developing mechanisms to augment food security andfood availability for improved maternal and child nutrition; and, creating awareness ofkey

    behaviors forhealth at the community and household level through capacity building of localprimary health care workers, committee members and local organizations.

    The technical interventions focus on the leading causes of child mortality in the project zone:Maternal and New born care (30% level of effort); Nutrition (30%); of malaria (30% level ofeffort) and control of diarrhea diseases (20%).

    The Intermediate Results (principal objectives) are:

    Increase the practice of selected emphasis behaviors for maternal/child survival; Ensure institutionalized sustainable MOH a0nd community support for community

    health workers; Strengthen the capacity of communities and local/district health teams.

    The activities for achieving the Strategic Objectives are organized into five TechnicalPackages/Sub-Objectives:

    y To increase access to, demand for, and use ofquality maternal and child healthservices, including emergency care; in order to improved family behaviors related tomaternal and child health.

    y To improve case management of malaria at the community and health post levels;increase access to treatment for malaria; improve access and use of treated mosquitonets; and to improve use of chemoprophylaxis (IPT) for malaria among pregnant

    women.y To improve prevention and treatment of diarrheal disease among rural children under

    five.y Improve nutrition of women and children, through education and

    household/community food security and nutrition activities.y To improve the capacity of the Ministry of Health and local partner agencies, to plan,

    implement, monitor and evaluate child survival interventions at the community anddistrict levels, with an emphasis on capacity in maternal and child health, nutrition,

    and household food security.

    The Project Targeted Initially 90 villages in 2 phased coverage approach. The projectestablished 266 women care groups and support to 50 Health posts. After the MTE, finally

    limited its intervention area to 61 villages.

    Baseline KPC and Health Facility Assessment and DIP workshop were performed in Januaryand February 2008.

    The Project used an adapted version of the care group model and training forhealth careproviders at the facility level that resulted according to the Mid Term Evaluation done inJanuary 2010 in an increased knowledge and practice around key child survival interventions,especially malaria prevention, improved nutrition, control of diarrheal disease, and increased

    access to essential obstetric and neonatal care.Final KPC was implemented as part of the overall Final Evaluation Process in September.

    Training and Capacity Building

    Core Team Training

    The core Team is composed of 6 persons: the Project Manager, Project TrainingCoordinator, Project M&E, the District Communition Officer, the Representative of the

  • 8/3/2019 KPC Report Template Adapted HM Dec 19

    14/19

    Local Government Agricultural Office, the Representant of the Local GON CommunityDevelopment Office. The Core and the Child Survival Program staff worked on reviewing

    the Survey plan. The agenda of the review included refresher session on KPC purpose andMethodology, review and adaptation ofquestionnaires and Training agenda and logistic and

    budget arrangement to conduct the Training of Supervisors. The planning intervenes duringan ultimate Budget Revision process that significantly reduces provision of funds for the FinalEvaluation.The Budget Revision process delayed availability of project funds wire in country to startimplementation of the KPC that finally come to Mid Sept 2011.To accommodate the short time implementation of the Survey, the project management Teamdecided to recall Survey Trainers and Enumerators who participated in the Initial KPC survey.This could improve the quality of the Training and save time.Questionnaire:The scope of the survey and the development of the survey questions were focused on thefourintervention area of the project:

    y Maternal and newborn healthcarey Control & treatment of malariay Control & treatment of diarrheal diseasey Nutrition/Food Security

    The survey questionnaire was 87 questions in length excluding the anthropometrics. The

    anthropometrics consisted of three measurements: height, weight, and MUAC (whereappropriate). The questionnaire was translated into French from the final English version.

    During the survey the Frenchquestionnaire was used as a guide for the verbalization of thesurvey into Hausa (the local language). Hausa translations ofkey words are included inannexe6

    Training of Suveryors Trainer (TOST)From Sept 1617 2011, the Project Senior staff, Konni Health District and Local GovernmentTechnical Services Chief Officer trained five supervisors. 3 supervisors participated in the

    initial KPC and all have some professional survey experience according to the Learning Needassessment. Agenda and content ofTOST are in annexe2. It includes review of KPC general

    purpose and sampling, review ofquestionnaire and logistics for conducting Surveyorstraining.An Adaptation of Key local language items of Initial KPC was done.Supervisors contributed insight into traditions and cultural issues that could impact surveyresults, and brainstormed solutions to overcome bias.

    Training of Surveyors

    RIs survey supervisors conducted a two-day training of 30 interviewers to prepare them forthe use of the questionnaire, anthropometric measurement equipment, and presentationsamples.Since 50% of the Surveyors participated in the 2008 initial KPC, the supervisors involvedthem to participated to the rest of the interviewers. The teams ofinterviewers practiced

    completing the questionnaire in Konni town on the second training day.A list ofhighly experienced interviewers in anthropometrics was established to set up 5Teams for the Field data collection.The supervisors met with the program manager and the coordination Team at the end of each

    day for feedbackand to finalize plans for the survey implementation. The KPC survey wascollaborative effort of RI staff and local partners/stakeholders.

    15/19

    Some of the constraints in making this Final KPC included the following:

    y Delay in start up and Limited funds to recruit more enumeratorsy Limited timeline ( 2 days TOST, 2 days TOT and 5 days data collection)

    Study Population

    2.4.1 Sample Size Calculation

    The Organization Team adopted the 30 Cluster sampling of 10 units for this Final KPC, samemethod as initial survey. However given that the project initial KPC sampling was done onthe basis of the 453 villages of the whole district area, and that the project was finally able todevelop laterits intervention only in 61 as results of MTE recommendation to limitintervention villages. There was a discussion on which sampling to use for the final KPC.Consultation and discussion with the Final Evaluation Consultant and the MCHIP Team andgiven the limited resources and time for the survey implementation, the basis of 61 village is

    used to chose the 30 clusters.

    2.4.2 Sampling Design

    Steps Followed for Choosing 30 Clusters

    Step 1: A list of the 61 villages was used as the sampling frame for selection of cluster. Thepopulation of the villages was provided by the Niger Bureau of Statistics. A master list with

    cumulative population totals was constructed including all villages.

    Step 2:The total estimated population of the Project Zone (61 villages) is 83286 divided by30, giving a sampling interval of 2776. A start number of 3839 was randomly identifiedamong the last 4 Numbers of the serial Number of Niger 10000 CFA currency Lot.

    Step 3: After the selection of the first cluster, the remaining 29 clusters were identified usingthe sampling interval.

    2.4 Data Collection and AnalysisThe survey team was divided in six teams. Each team was composed of 4 Interviewers, onemeasurer and one supervisor each team covered one cluster per day, filling out 12questionnaires. At the end of the data collection, a total of 360 questionnaires were filled out

    by the interviewers.

    The supervisors were responsi ble for the selection of the starting household and surveydirection. Eachquestionnaire was reviewed by a supervisorin the field. Eachquestionnairewas further reviewed each evening . This process was efficient to detect and report recurrenterrors to interviewers. Each team was supervised at least twice by a member of the Core team

    engaged occasionally in the supervision of supervisor.

    The survey data was entered into Epi Info and checked for analysis. The data management iscomposed of one staff from the MOH HIS , one project M&E Staff and the Project Manager.

    Due to the tight timeline to submit an Outline of the Interim by the Consultant andquestionnaire checkremained incomplete and continued through the analysis phase.Several backand forth on the questionnaires lead to a preliminary analysis of the PriorityRapid Cath Indicator.Analysis of one indicator revealed to be difficult to calculate to the Team: perform by theteam : complementary feeding composite indicator.Disease data tables locked and were not accessible temporary for analysis. A specialassistance from Niger WHO Statistician was requested.As results, by September 30, the End of the Child Survival Official contracting period for

    Project Staff and therefore the core team of the Survey, IYCF indicators were missing.

    2 months laterin Dec 15, the Former child Survival Project was recalled by ReliefInternational-HQ to complete the analysis and the Report.

    Challenges and Issues during the Survey Implementation:

    Throughout the whole Survey Process, the Team worked under pressure of finalizing thewhole KPC survey and the assist the Consultant to do the qualitative assessment within 9 days

    before the official End of the Project Contracting period. Despite the commitment of theSurvey Team, this working atmosphere has resulted in some biases worthy to mention here:

    Data Collection phase:

    y Some Mothers Prenatal consultation cards were not filled even though childvaccination confirmed by the Village worker register and the Mother saying.

    y Weight forheight Measurement was all done by a team of Six measurers, thereforemultiplying the riskof same measurer errors.

    y For children under 30 days (One month) to small to be weighed or sick, Weight wasreplaced by Birth weight in the Child Cards or replaced by same age children who wasknown either by recall orin the Child Health Card. The total replacement done was

    about. Thus could inflate Num of children less than one month age and toosmall to be measured some surveyorhave reported either 0 Month or 1 month forChildren less that under 1 month or 1 month

    Analysis:

    y 2 missing questionnaires in a remote cluster that was identified only at the analysisphase without any practical option to go backto the village to complete the missingquestionnaire,

    y An insufficient verification of the data that resulted in missing data in somequestionnaires
