The INI Project
The Nutrition-Vaccination Integration (INI) project will be implemented in 2 countries, the République Democratic Republic of Congo and Niger, for a period of 3 years. It aims to simultaneously address two of the leading causes of child mortality in sub-Saharan Africa: malnutrition and infectious diseases. These two issues feed each other: malnutrition increases vulnerability to infections, while infectious diseases worsen the nutritional status of children, creating a vicious cycle that compromises their survival and development.
To break this cycle, the INV approach integrates the distribution of preventive lipid nutritional supplements in small amounts (SQ-LNS) with routine vaccination services for children aged 6 to 23 months. This strategy simultaneously strengthens child nutrition, improves immunization coverage and reduces mortality through a single delivery platform that is more accessible to families.
SQ-LNS are ready-to-use nutritional supplements whose effectiveness is widely demonstrated. They help to reduce infant mortality, anemia, wasting, stunting and developmental delays. Their use is recommended by the World Health Organization in contexts of food insecurity.
The INV approach is also based on encouraging results from trials in Africa. The NutriVax study in Nigeria showed that associating SQ-LNS with routine vaccination significantly increased measles immunization coverage and reduced the number of children who had not received a vaccine dose (zero-dose). Promising results are also seen in ongoing trials in Chad and Niger.
In this context, the Gates Foundation is supporting this new project for an operational scale-up of the INV strategy. République Democratic Republic of the Congo and Niger to assess the impact of this integrated approach on immunization coverage and child health. The project supports governments in implementing integrated delivery models, tailored to national priorities, to sustainably strengthen nutrition and immunization programmes and improve survival and development of young children.
The overall objective is to reduce infant mortality and morbidity by integrating nutrition and immunization activities in order to improve immunization coverage and nutritional status of children aged 6-18 months.
The specific objectives are: the joint administration of the SQ-LNS strategy and routine vaccinations in order to achieve a dual health impact, namely a reduction in malnutrition and an increase in immunization coverage; setting up a scalable operational and financial model that can be replicated in other regions; strengthening government ownership and co-financing, in order to allow for extension without the support of external actors; developing a regional roadmap for S- production.
