Code:
Result Level:
  • Outcome
Objectives:
  • Disaster Risk Reduction and Natural Resources Management
  • Productivity enhancement
Description:

Decrease of disease prevalence indicates improved environmental context, veterinary services and productivity and condition of the herd. - Includes livestock, pisciculture, aquaculture, apiculture, cuniculture, etc.

Disaggregated By:

Geography/Livelihoods zone; Wealth groups; Livelihoods group (e.g. pastoralist, farmers, traders); Period to achieve the objective;

Direction of change:
  • Decrease (distance)
Data source:

Both secondary and primary data collection can be used according to context. Baseline/Endline. If multiyear programme depending on comparison requirements between lean season and other seasons, consider an interim reporting/evaluation; Secondary data. Reliable/relevant sources from other actors, clusters or government. Data Collection methods: Secondary data analysis; Households survey; Focus Group Discussion; Veterinary records; Ministry census

Measure Notes:

> Number of animals affected by disease (by type) relative to baseline > Number of annual animal death due to disease (by type) relative to baseline > Number of annual disease outbreaks (by type) relative to baseline > Total number of livestock in the area of coverage relative to baseline - Needs to consider potential changes in seasonal presence of animals and disease prevalence. - Proportional piling/ranking are useful methods to establish changes and priorities of diseases.
