    INTRODUCTION TO MONITORING & EVALUATION IN GLOBAL HEALTH

    Problem Statements Expert Answer


    Review the following problem statements. For each problem statement, determine whether
    the who, where, what, and why are clearly stated and write a revised problem statement,
    addressing any issues you identified.

    1. DPT3 vaccine coverage of children under 5 years old in Awani District is low, at 75%.
    a. Who
    b. What
    c. Where
    d. Why is it important

    This problem statement is missing the “why is it important” element. A revised problem
    statement might be DPT3 vaccine coverage of children under 5 years old in Awani District is
    75%, lower than the country average of 90%. Or, DPT3 vaccine coverage of children under 5
    years old in Awani District is 75%, increasing risk of illness and death among children.

    2. Second-hand smoke causes approximately 7,000 deaths from lung cancer and 34,000
    deaths from heart disease each year.

    a. Who
    b. What
    c. Where
    d. Why is it important

    This problem statement is missing the “who” and “where” elements. A revised problem
    statement might be Second-hand smoke causes approximately 7,000 deaths from lung cancer
    and 34,000 deaths from heart disease among children and adults in the United States each
    year.

    3. Over half of children in Cambodia are estimated to be anemic, associated with problems
    with growth and development.
    a. Who
    b. What
    c. Where
    d. Why is it important

    This problem statement would be better if “children” were defined. A revised problem
    statement might be Over half of children under 5 years old in Cambodia are estimated to be
    anemic, associated with problems with growth and development.
