Making better use of harmonized indicators to monitor child health and well-being at the global level will avoid duplicative monitoring and evaluation exercises, improve evidence-based programming, and preserve resources that can be used to improve the quality of national data collection platforms.
Standard validated indicators that have been recommended by normative agencies exist and should be used as appropriate for monitoring child health outcomes.
Vertical child health monitoring and evaluation approaches can distort the prioritization of health issues at the country level and may skew national resource allocation.
A focus on building country capacity to improve child health data collection and analysis can minimize the need for complex statistical methods to estimate national values.
