Optimising geographical accessibility to primary health care
Background Little is known about the contribution of community health posts and community health workers (CHWs) to geographical accessibility of primary healthcare (PHC) services at community level and strategies for optimising geographical accessibility to these services. Methods Using a complete georeferenced census of community health posts and CHWs in Niger and other high-resolution spatial datasets, we modelled travel times to community heal…
Verbal/social autopsy study helps explain the lack of decrease in neonatal mortality in Niger, 2007–2010
BACKGROUND: This study was one of a set of verbal/social autopsy (VASA) investigations undertaken by the WHO/UNICEF-supported Child Health Epidemiology Reference Group to estimate the causes and determinants of neonatal and child deaths in high priority countries. The study objective was to help explain the lack of decrease in neonatal mortality in Niger from 2007 to 2010, a period during which child mortality was decreasing. METHODS: VASA interv…
Verbal/Social Autopsy in Niger 2012–2013

While research has documented the extent and nature of the overall rapid decline in child mortality in Niger, there is less clear evidence to provide insight into the contributors to such deaths…
