A set of three operational data collection and planning tools designed to support the cluster-level refusal reduction strategy in Afghanistan's Southeast region.
The three tools work together as a linked system for identifying, engaging, and tracking vaccine-refusing households across the programme cycle. The Refusal Profiling Tool captures household-level data on each refusing child — including demographic details, father's occupation, economic status, language, tribe, number of rounds missed, zero-dose status, reason for refusal, and the name of the relevant influencer to be engaged — enabling frontline teams to build a granular picture of refusal patterns and tailor follow-up accordingly. The Influencer Mapping Tool creates a registry of key community figures at the UC level, categorizing each influencer as positive or negative, recording their type (religious, medical, political, tribal elder, malak, etc.), contact details, and whether they are actively supporting campaigns or accompanying teams for refusal conversion — providing the social network intelligence needed to assign the right messenger to the right household. The Refusal Oversight Committee Planning and Monitoring Tool operationalizes the DROC function across the full campaign cycle: a planning sheet captures household-level refusal information alongside planned activities for between-campaign, pre-campaign, and campaign-day periods; a reporting sheet tracks progress against those plans including influencers engaged, families convinced, and children vaccinated; and a monitoring sheet provides supervisors with a structured quality checklist, quantitative indicators, and space to document challenges and required actions.
Best used for: cluster-level refusal microplanning, social network and influencer mapping, ROC operationalization, refusal tracking and conversion monitoring, field supervision and course correction.
