Detailed Specifications

Several Low- and Middle-Income Countries (LMICs) are currently implementing various activities on iCCM and despite the common goal of improving health outcomes at community level, there is not a central and coordinated repository of up-to-date iCCM resources that countries can rely on to institutionalize, design and plan iCCM activities. Governments often go through “trial and error” approaches to institutionalize iCCM and learn from other countries’ experience when they join conferences, workshops and technical working groups. Furthermore, the knowledge gained at global level on iCCM activities is currently not at countries’ disposal in an organized way.

The Institutionalizing iCCM eToolkit offers governments, implementers and national decision-makers access to a package of materials publicly available on the Child Health Task Force website.

Users of the Institutionalizing iCCM eTooklit will navigate a portfolio of iCCM resources organized on the following sub-components: 1) Introduction to iCCM Institutionalization; 2) Assessing the country context for iCCM institutionalization; 3) iCCM institutionalization component: policy; 4) iCCM institutionalization component: core values; 5) iCCM institutionalization component: resourcing (human and financial); 6) iCCM institutionalization component: leadership; 7) Assessing progress and adapting approaches for iCCM institutionalization, including indicators for measurement. Each sub-component provides users with the following materials:

• Brief description of the sub-component (topic preview)
• Up-to-date content on the state of the art of the sub-component (narrative description)
• Examples of best practices and case studies
• Tool templates where relevant and links to other existing tools
• Links to existing reference resources
• Activities to practice the knowledge gained
