EFTA00586369 | EFTA00586373 Introduction: Thanks to a very successful global campaign over the past decade, polio has been successfully eradicated in 99.9% of the world; however, it remains endemic in only three countries -Afghanistan, Nigeria and Pakistan. In Pakistan, the vast majority of remaining polio cases are found in the Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA), where two of its seven tribal agencies (North Waziristan Agency and South Waziristan Agency ) are particularly hard-hit, with cases reported in Balochistan and Sindh Provinces, invariably all with a Pashtun connection. Owing to porous borders and close kinship ties, there is the danger of polio spreading to and from Afghanistan, and possibly beyond. Hence eradicating polio globally and permanently has come down to the ability to reach those reservoirs of children in a handful of unstable, isolated and inaccessible areas and communities. Wiping out polio under these conditions requires more specific and tailored approaches from the global campaign which has worked in the vast majority of countries, including in the rest of Pakistan. This is an internal IPI mission report, based on an informal visit to Pakistan over five days, between 27 April and I May and focusing on the north-west of the country, the source of the problems. Meetings were held with a variety of sources to enable a snapshot of the present state of play. These contacts/discussions included non-official sources and official health sources in Peshawar, the seat of both the tribal FATA Secretariat as well as the Provincial Govt, and official sources in the national capital Islamabad -- including by coincidence Dr Waqar Ajmal, the Pakistani technical focal point for polio at the Gates Foundation, who is based in Seattle but was visiting Pakistan. Background: Intensive informal meetings were held bilaterally or in small groups with a variety of representatives from FATA's seven tribal agencies (Bajaur, Khyber; Kurram; Mohmand; North Waziristan; Orakzai; South Waziristan) and some adjacent semi-settled areas (Kohat, Swat and Shangla). The interlocutors were from leading tribes in each FATA Agency, and by profession mainly development workers, social workers, journalists and small enterpreneurs. They live in their ancestral villages and small towns, and manage to be mobile, travelling with great difficulty to nearby urban areas for work or other reasons. A number are internallydisplaced persons (IDPs). The tribal interlocutors were selected on the basis of their ability to provide authentic and accurate on-the-ground information on polio issues in their respective tribal Agency. Note: Similarities in the problems voiced by different tribal interlocutors were less of a surprise than were the modest "success stories," which provide reason to hope that the last inch can indeed be run and won!
