UNICEF works in some of the world’s toughest places, to reach the world’s most disadvantaged children. To save their lives. To defend their rights. To help them fulfill their potential.

Across 190 countries and territories, we work for every child, everywhere, every day, to build a better world for everyone.

And we never give up.

For every child, dedication

In Nigeria, UNICEF works in a complex humanitarian and development setting to fulfill and protect children's rights in partnership with the government, civil society, children, and families. UNICEF Nigeria is one of the largest UNICEF Country Offices globally.

How can you make a difference?

Each year in Nigeria over 7.5 million babies are born, of whom about 300,000 die during their first month of life. Despite our gains for child survival whereby the under-five child mortality has decreased in the last decade, available data shows that the rate of decline is slow. It is important to understand and address bottlenecks at decentralized levels and tailor an accelerated response to fast-track reduction in under-five mortality rate. In its effort to support strengthening of the PHC system to be able to make high-quality health care services available, accessible and affordable to all Nigerians, especially women and children. The BMGF set up the PHC Leadership Challenge (PHC LC) following the endorsement of the Seattle declaration by Nigeria Governors which seeks to fill critical leadership gaps in primary health care systems development in Nigeria.
UNICEF Nigeria country office in partnership with the NPHCDA and the Nigeria Governors Forum (NGF) is leading the implementation of the PHC LC whose approach is to measure progress against indicators as per an agreed performance monitoring framework (PMF) where each of Nigeria’s 36 + 1 state performance will be assessed annually. The PMF includes (i) key indicators to measure the quality PHC leadership provided by Governors and how this impacts access and utilization of priority health and nutrition services for the population especially women/girls and children; (ii) the metadata of each indicator and (iii) guide to scoring state-specific performance against the PMF indicators.
To effectively support and guide the technical team as well as the states in processes involving data analyses, decentralized digitalization of HIS, data visualization and data use and the like an understanding of the health data space (HMIS, DHIS2, RMNCAH) in Nigeria and global and national digital HIS strategies and practices is essential. This needs to be done across all levels, the PHC LCF technical committee and throughout the 36 + 1 states
