Abstract
Two simple methods were employed for evaluating immunization activities in three rural health districts of Zaire, with a view to improving service delivery. One method involves the use of cumulative frequency graphs for monitoring progress at the health centre level towards the achievement of coverage targets. The other requires a clinic-based audit and a population-based survey of children aged 12-23 months to ascertain whether they have been immunized against measles at the appropriate time. These approaches can help to identify operational problems and to motivate the people in charge of immunization at local level.
