The study will adopt a pretest/post-test quasi-experimental design. The approach of the proposed project is to implement a participatory community engagement and demand creation strategy with trust-building community mobilization and a conditional community-based incentive scheme to reduce the refusals to vaccination and improve polio immunization coverage in intervention UCs. Clusters will be formed on a population of 1500-2000 in each intervention UC. Committees would be formed with approximately 5-7 prominent members of the community. Intervention Non-cash, incentives would be given and decided with consensus by UC committees and aim to improve infrastructure linked to health including water and sanitation and toilets in the community.
This would be the standard of care
