The Gabon-UNICEF programme of cooperation contributed to the development of the national Accelerated Child Survival Plan, together with an investment plan developed through the marginal budgeting for bottlenecks tool. It was incorporated into national health policy and the national Health Development Plan. Immunization coverage has increased, rising from 38 per cent in 2006 to over 76 per cent in 2009, as a result of Government efforts through the “reach every district” approach. No cases of measles, polio or yellow fever have been detected since 2008. Through UNICEF advocacy and technical support and PMTCT, the four areas of focus in UNICEF efforts on HIV/AIDS (prevention, care, treatment and protection) have been included in the national HIV/AIDS strategic plan for 2008-2012 funded by the State and supported by the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria.
