Immunization financing

Indicators

Indicators on immunization financing are available from 3 separate sources of information: WHO and UNICEF Joint Reporting Form (JRF); Financial Sustainability Plans (FSP) and comprehensive Multi-Year Plans (cMYP).

A first series of indicators are available from the WHO-UNICEF annual monitoring system for all member states. Since 1998, the WHO and UNICEF Joint Reporting Form (JRF) mechanism has been collecting data on immunization financing indicators as part of a set of immunization indicators designed to measure system performance and trends in WHO Member States.
