RBM Partnership Needs Assessment Package

When carrying out an individual needs assessment. The documents also provide a general framework for cross-country comparisons/issues. The needs assessment process will cover four key areas:
•General information: demographic and epidemiological profile, progress, estimated gap, and requirements
•Core interventions: prevention and case management
•Cross-cutting issues: epidemic/emergency control, advocacy/IEC/BCC, surveillance, monitoring, and evaluation
•Program management and health systems: program management, supply management, and health system strengthening
The process and documentation of the needs assessment will be driven by three main tools: the Needs Assessment Calculation Tool, the RBM Partnership Needs Assessment Report Template, and the Guidelines for RBM Partnership Needs Assessment.
