National Project Implementation Plan - NVBDCP

Routine Program Monitoring: At the state and district levels, service-related
data collected regularly provide information about program inputs (e.g., staff,
supplies and financial resources), processes (e.g., training, communications)
and outputs (services delivered). Over time this routine information provides a
picture of increases or decreases, improvements or gaps, achievement of
stability, and so on. Data for tribal districts/areas will be examined separately.
Geographic Information System (GIS): The Project will facilitate GOI’s efforts
to introduce GIS to map high-risk areas and health facilities, monitor the
distribution of VBDs in tribal areas, analyze time trends, ensure available
health resources, and forecast epidemics. GIS data (in the form of maps) will
also help to plan appropriate actions at the local level, for example, to identify
high-risk areas for IRS. The availability and use of ‘tribal maps’ would be
examined during Bank reviews
Health Management Information System (HMIS): The Project will support
revamping of the VBD MIS, and enable monitoring of the use of services by
vulnerable groups and women, and timely and appropriate responses by the
health system. Data is expected to be disaggregated by M/F, age,
SC/ST/General, and Tribal/Non-tribal area by the early implementation review.
15.11 Environment Management
The Environmental Management Plan (EMP), prepared by the NVBDCP,[through
National Institute of Malaria Research] consists of a set of mitigation,
monitoring, capacity development and institutional measures to be taken
during implementation and operation of the project, to address the adverse
environmental and social impacts, offset them, or reduce them to acceptable
levels. The EMP also includes an implementation schedule and the capital and
recurrent cost estimates for its implementation. This budget estimated for the
EMP will be integrated into the total project cost.
15.11.1 Legal Framework
NVBDCP, through this project recommend and support the country in updating
the various regulations related to its activities. The key activities include review
of compliance of Insecticides Act to meet minimum essential international
standards. Also the EMP recommends revision of the national guidelines (based
on FAO’s Pesticides Guidelines on Storage, Labeling, and Disposal), to include
monitoring, efficacy evaluation for the registration of plant protection products;
and compliance and enforcement of a pesticide regulatory program.
