Expanding the Lens From Health Outcomes to Learn More About Key Stakeholders and the Structural Factors as a Pathway Toward Health Equity
Comparatively worse health outcomes persist for historically underserved populations relative to their more privileged peers due to systemic health inequities in the United States and worldwide. The relationship between preventable health differences and social injustice is salient, with recurring media coverage of viral outbreaks and televized court cases of police brutality bringing it to public attention. Rather than waiting for social determi…
Improving the reporting of health research involving design
Design is being used more frequently in global health practice but is not reported on sufficiently for transparency, evaluability and wider dissemination. Reporting guidelines are useful in improving the quality and quantity of dissemination of work in peer-reviewed literature for global health. Building on available literature and current practice in design for global health, we present a reporting guideline that can be used by scholars and prac…
Drivers of routine immunization coverage improvement in Africa
There is limited understanding of why routine immunization (RI) coverage improves in some settings in Africa and not in others. Using a grounded theory approach, we conducted in-depth case studies to understand pathways to coverage improvement by comparing immunization programme experience in 12 districts in three countries (Ethiopia, Cameroon and Ghana). Drawing on positive deviance or assets model techniques we compared the experience of distri…
Strategies to maximize generalization from multiple case studies
This article considers the challenges of generalizability related to case studies, and specifically for the in-depth case studies of the Africa Routine Immunization System Essentials (ARISE) project. The article describes how these challenges were addressed, by developing a Theory of Change to frame case selection strategies, data collection, and analysis, including synthesis of findings across multiple cases. The authors then consider: the impor…

Deterrents to immunisation in Somalia
As part of the global drive to achieve Universal Child Immunisation by 1990 (UCI 90), Somalia launched a national immunisation programme for women and children. While access to it improved, actual demand for immunisation remained low. This article reports the findings of a study to identify the factors influencing acceptance of immunisation in two Somali communities. A retrospective, qualitative approach was adopted to assess individual and commu…
