Immunization Data & Decision Making unit
The Immunization Data & Decision Making (DDM) unit collects, collates, analyzes and produces core annual insights on global immunization system performance. These data are critical for ensuring performance accountability of bodies such as WHO, UNICEF, The Gavi Alliance and others. Our outputs direct broad resources in directions most likely to achieve impact.
Global monitoring
The monitoring of the functioning of immunization systems enables identification of programmatic areas that are performing well and areas that need strengthening. Once areas that require strengthening have been identified, the issue of improving performance can be addressed
WHO encourages countries to collect immunization systems data on issues such as vaccine coverage, planning, financing, surveillance, human resources, logistics management, outreach activities and safety
