Zero Dose Children: Exploring the context & drivers of missed vaccination of children in Uttar Pradesh using a gender lens
In-person exploratory conversations were conducted with mothers of zero dose children by the Uttar Pradesh Technical Support Unit (UP TSU), as part of the initial diagnostics phase of the Zero-Dose Learning Agenda (ZDLA), to understand local determinants leading to children being zero dose in specific geographies. As one part of this exercise, this brief summarizes the insights exploring gendered barriers impacting childhood immunization and strategies to mitigate these barriers with a focus on gender inequality.
