The rocky road to zero: Report of GPEI

The Independent Monitoring Board provides an independent assessment of the progress being made by the Global Polio Eradication Initiative in the detection and interruption of polio transmission globally. This eleventh report follows the IMB’s twelfth meeting, held in Abu Dhabi on 29 and 30 April 2015. This IMB report, more than any of its predecessors, urges the programme, at global and country level, to embrace, with determination and passion, the culture and methods of fundamental quality improvement. The global programme is better than it was, but it remains far from excellent. If it truly aims for excellence, it can become a resilient programme with strong prospects of successfully navigating the rocky road ahead. If it does not, it will have to put its faith in being able to limp towards the finishing line despite big patches of mediocrity.
