The Cameroon Baptist Convention Health Services (CBCHS) has successfully implemented integrated health services, including vaccination, as part of Gavi's Humanitarian Partnerships (ZIP). By combining vaccines with other essential services like medicine and food distribution, they have significantly increased community turnout.
According to a Gavi report, mothers in the region expressed that bringing multiple services together encourages them to attend. This approach addresses barriers such as distance and time, making healthcare more accessible in remote areas.
The initiative has led to higher vaccination coverage among children and pregnant women, contributing to reduced preventable diseases. CBCHS continues to adapt its strategy based on community feedback, ensuring sustainability.
