Identifying context-specific drivers of routine childhood immunisation dropout in Mozambique and Malawi: a secondary thematic analysis of qualitative community-based participatory research data.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

Routine childhood immunisation is vital to preventing life-threatening illness; however, global coverage of routine childhood immunisations has fallen in recent years, leaving over 14 million children globally without protection. This study aimed to identify shared and context-specific drivers of routine childhood immunisation dropout in select sites in Mozambique and Malawi through a secondary analysis of qualitative data.

Design

We conducted a secondary inductive thematic analysis on qualitative data from a community-based participatory research study. Co-creation workshops, guided by a human-centred design approach, were held to develop context-specific solutions in each study site. Data for this analysis were collected between February 2020 and March 2021 in Mo
