Gambia (The)

The Republic of The Gambia is a member state of the African Leaders Malaria Alliance. We support The Gambia in the implementation of the country’s scorecard tools.

Scorecard tools

Scorecard management tools are country-owned tools that provide a snapshot of the country’s national and subnational health performance. The colour-coded scorecard tool helps track performance of priority indicators, identify bottlenecks or gaps, increase accountability, and enhance decision making to drive action.

We support The Gambia with 3 scorecard tools:

  • malaria scorecard tool
  • reproductive, maternal, newborn, child and adolescent health (RMNCAH) scorecard tool
  • neglected tropical diseases (NTD) scorecard tool

Malaria scorecard tool

The Gambia’s malaria scorecard tool was developed in 2016 by the National Malaria Control Programme, with support from ALMA and other partners. Since the introduction of the scorecard tool, we have been supporting the Ministry of Health in strengthening their malaria scorecard tool, linking the scorecard tool to the national health information system (DHIS2) and using the Action Tracker on the Scorecard Web Platform.

RMNCAH scorecard tool

The Gambia’s RMNCAH scorecard tool was developed in 2015 by the Ministry of Health, with support from ALMA and other partners. Since the introduction of the scorecard tool, we have been supporting the Ministry of Health in strengthening their RMNCAH scorecard tool.

Neglected tropical diseases scorecard tool

The Gambia’s neglected tropical diseases scorecard tool was developed in 2022 by the Ministry of Health, with support from ALMA.
