Det övergripande målet med programmet är att mildra konsekvenserna av covid-19 på hälsosystemet genom tillgång till livsnödvändiga mediciner, vacciner, skyddsutrusning och övrigt materiel för att säkerställa löpande primärhälsovårdsverksamhet. Programmet kommer att genomföras av UNICEF i nära samarbete med zambiska hälsomyndigheter. Programmet är avsett att bidra till ett motståndskraftigt zambiskt hälsosystem genom att garantera ett kontinuerligt utbud av livsnödvändiga mediciner, vaccin och förnödenheter för kvinnor, barn och ungdomar under covid-19 pandemin. Programmet syftar till att försäkra tillgången till vaccin för 375 000 spädbarn och 380 000 gravida kvinnor över hela landet samt nödvändiga basmediciner för primärhälsovård för uppskattningsvis 1 000 000 i fyra provinser (Eastern, Southern, Luapula, Muchinga) i upp till 6 månader. Cirka 5 000 hälso- och sjukvårdspersonal i 983 hälsocentraler och 48 sjukhus i 4 provinser kommer att få personlig skyddsutrustning (PPE) och infektionsförebyggande materiel för att kunna bedriva effektiv primärhälso- och sjukvård. De föreslagna aktiviteterna som stöds av detta projekt är avsedda att hantera den nuvarande situationen i Zambia som härrör från coronaviruspandemin. Vid planering och framtagande av förslag till insats har nära samordning skett med hälsoministeriet och andra givare, företrädesvis EU, DFID och USAID, som liksom Sverige planerar stöd med liknande inriktning till övriga provinser i Zambia. I stort sett kommer aktiviteterna att omfatta: i)upphandling av traditionella vacciner för att kunna genomföra det rutinmässiga barnvaccinationsprogrammet i 6 månader; ii)upphandling av nödvändiga läkemedel för allmän hälso- och sjukvård samt för mödra- och barnhälsovård i 6 månader; iii)upphandling av PPE och infektionsförebyggande materiel för vårdpersonal och volontärer vid hälsocentraler och sjukhus i 2 månader; iv)upphandling av utrustning för syrgasbehandling för samtliga sjukhus i de fyra provinserna samt rehabilitering av större syrgasanläggningar på 2 sjukhus inklusive University Teaching Hospital (UTH) i Lusaka; v)distribution av varorna till angivna platser och patientuppföljning. vi)tekniskt stöd för att anpassa verksamheten till omständigheterna kring covid-19 vii)operativt stöd för att organisera hälso- och sjukvården på landsbygden, i synnerhet vaccinationsprogrammet, i särskilt svåråtkomliga och lågpresterande distrikt. Insatsens totala budget uppgår till 52 MSEK varav mer än 80 procent utgörs av kostnader för inköp av mediciner, vacciner, skyddsutrustning och andra förnödenheter samt kostnader relaterade till flygfrakt, transport och säker distribution av varorna ända fram till hälsoklinikerna. Övriga budgetposter inkluderar tekniskt stöd till hälsopersonal samt kontinuerlig uppföljning av verksamheten för att tillse att primärhälsovård av god kvalitet kan fortsätta att ges till de mest behövande trots restriktioner och övriga hinder som en följd av covid-19. Budgeten bedöms rimlig utifrån en mängd osäkerhetsfaktorer avseende det rörliga utbudet och tillgången till de specifika varorna på den globala marknaden.

Overall Impact of the program: In line with the Theory of Change, the programme contributed to mitigate the disruption of lifesaving routine immunisation and RMNCAH service delivery resulting from the aggressive community transmission of COVID19. The programme continued to reinforce the Humanitarian Development Nexus with simultaneous contribution to Health Systems Strengthening and systems resilience through improved essential health commodities security, cold chain system and medical oxygen delivery system. The programme contributed to revival of maternal and newborn survival agenda particularly the critical need for Zambias health system to deliver high quality, universal, respectful services across the continuum of care. Through establishment and strengthening of essential newborn care units and kangaroo mother care units, the project contributed to protecting and supporting the mother-baby relationship. Additional 80 newborn lives were saved over a period of 6 months (July to December 2022) with an observed 10 per cent decline (22.5 to 11.7 per cent) in preterm mortality rate at one of the hospitals (Katete Mission Hospital) through provision of Kangaroo Mother Care (KMC) at KMC unit supported under the project. Key Outcome level gains made in the programme during the reporting period (1 June 2022 to 31 May 2023) Outcome 1: A total of 357,556 infants (Target: 375,000) and 48,923 pregnant women (Target: 58,000) received routine immunisation services (by accessing four traditional vaccines: BCG, bOPV, MR and Td) across the 10 provinces in the country, while 158,344 infants and 24,097 pregnant women received routine immunisation services across the four priority RMNCAH provinces (Eastern, Southern, Luapula and Muchinga). Outcome 2: Approximately 544,754 (Total cumulative target: 1 million) Zambian people (Adults: 350,613 Children under 5 years: 154,510 and Adolescents: 39,631) accessed basic curative care and RMNCAH services in the four priority RMNCAH provinces (Eastern, Southern, Luapula and Muchinga). Outcome 3: As previously reported in second progress report, this outcome target was fully met to protect 5,000 health care workers with the provision of PPEs. Outcome 4: A total of 3,675 newborns received essential newborn care (Target: 4,000).

The goal of the proposed programme is to mitigate the consequences of Covid-19 on the health system with provision of essential health commodities to ensure the continuation of essential health services delivery in 4 provinces of Zambia. The programme is intended to promote resilience of the health system as a mitigation for Covid-19 impact by ensuring essential health commodity security especially focused on vaccines, essential medicines and supplies for reproductive, maternal, newborn, child and adolescent health services. The partnership with UNICEF has been significant in achieving the planned results as per its 1st interim progress report submitted in June 2021. Significant contributions of the partnership were reported in mitigating the impact of COVID-19 in Zambias health systems, especially with regards to sustaining the continuity of life-saving essential health services and building the resilience of the health system. Both Sida and UNICEF therefore, proposed and agreed to further expand the partnership to sustain Essential Health Commodities security.
