7.3. Sub Component 3.c Monitoring and Evaluation<br />
This sub-component would include activities for making computerized<br />
management information system (MIS) functional and for monitoring and<br />
evaluation-related surveys and studies. A Geographic Information System<br />
(GIS) would be expanded and strengthen systematically as a tool for microstratification,<br />
planning, monitoring and advocacy. Activities in the subcomponent<br />
would mainly be the responsibility of the <strong>NVBDCP</strong>, working in<br />
close cooperation with the state-level program managers. Development of<br />
monitoring and evaluation framework and capacity development will be<br />
undertaken by <strong>NVBDCP</strong>. THE M&E framework development will be same for<br />
GFATM project and the World Bank project.<br />
District level implementation of malaria control and Kala-azar elimination<br />
activities under the <strong>NVBDCP</strong><br />
In consonance with the <strong>National</strong> Rural Health Mission strategy, the <strong>NVBDCP</strong><br />
supports a decentralized district centered program which is responsive to<br />
local needs operating within the national policy framework. The World Bank<br />
will provide support for this approach with special focus on malaria<br />
prevention and control, and Kala-azar elimination. Collaboration with IDSP<br />
will be undertaken at all levels preventing overlap between the two<br />
projects. Experiences of earlier malaria project funded by the World Bank<br />
and other disease control programs, especially the Revised <strong>National</strong><br />
Tuberculosis Control Program and RCH will be used for the implementation<br />
strategy.<br />
Typically there will be four stages in district oriented program evolution:<br />
Preparatory Stage<br />
Appraisal and approval Stage<br />
Initial <strong>Implementation</strong><br />
Expanded <strong>Implementation</strong><br />
Preparatory Stage: This begins with a detailed review of available<br />
epidemiological data which helps in identifying and prioritizing the high<br />
burden districts. <strong>NVBDCP</strong> has identified 93 districts for malaria control and<br />
46 districts for Kala-azar elimination for intensive inputs under the World<br />
Bank supported project. A sensitization workshop for the district and state<br />
program managers and policy makers from malaria high burden districts<br />
and respective states was held in June 2007 to share the new national<br />
policies and strategies, and specific actions to be completed by these<br />
districts for effective implementation of the new district focused paradigm.<br />
Similar consultations involving a wider range of stakeholders including the<br />
non government sector are planned at state and district levels. A similar<br />
sensitization workshop will be conducted for Kala-azar endemic districts and<br />
states<br />
Appraisal and approval stage: <strong>NVBDCP</strong> will constitute expert teams to<br />
review the district VBD action plans using the readiness filters. The<br />
readiness filters were discussed with World Bank also during negotiation<br />
