Please indicate how many children in your people/community have received the full series of vaccines recommended by the national health authorities?
A national vaccination schedule is the scheme recommended by national health authorities, which indicates the series of vaccinations children should get, including the timing of the doses (at what age they should be given). You should be able to find the details of the national vaccination schedules on the website of the health authorities of your country.
Please discuss in the community whether children receive vaccines? If yes, which ones and at what ages? You can then compare this with the national vaccination schedule, and based on this assess, as a broad estimate, how many children of your people/community have received the full immunization, as recommended.
The six response options are:
·       None = Nobody (0%)
·       One out of five = a few people (up to 20 %)
·       Two out of five = a bit less than half (up to 40%)
·       Three out of five = a bit more than half (up to 60 %)
·       Four out of five = most people (up to 80%)
·       Five out of five = everybody (up to 100 %)

Please indicate the distance in practical terms - how easy, and how costly, is it to reach the nearest health facilities?
The response options are the following:
·       Immediately accessible (within short distance; everybody has unrestricted and free access to health facilities)
·       Accessible (within reasonable distance and affordable for all)
·       Moderately inaccessible (distance and/or costs constitute a challenge that limits access for some)
·       Inaccessible (distance and/or costs constitute a severe challenge that limits access for many)
·       Highly inaccessible (distance and costs impede access for most)
If you have additional comments on the accessibility, please provide them in the text box.

This question monitors indigenous peoples’ access to health programmes, by looking specifically at whether the State has taken special measures to reach indigenous peoples with health programmes – in accordance with the State duty to advance effective equality of disadvantaged groups.
Data regularly shows that the health status of indigenous peoples is invariably lower than that of the overall population both in developing and industrialized countries. States should therefore implement special measures to overcome these disparities. Article 24(2) of UNDRIP states that "Indigenous individuals have an equal right to the enjoyment of the highest attainable standard of physical and mental health. States shall take the necessary steps with a view to achieving progressively the full realization of this right."
Data source: Ministry of Health, information on targeted health measures for vulnerable groups.
Please answer ‘Yes’ or ‘No’, and provide additional information, as relevant, in the comment box.

Please indicate whether traditional healing practices are still in use – and how important they are today? You are asked to assess to what extent such practices are in use - now, as compared to 20 years ago. Traditional healing practices can comprise a broad range of spiritual, social and physical practices, as well as use of medical plants, diets and others.
To have a clear, common understanding of what we mean by '20 years ago', please start by identifying a reference point that marks what year we talk about (e.g. the birth of a 20-year-old person, or the like). Then discuss what remedies people used back then, if somebody was sick? Are these practices still common today, or less frequently used?
You are given four response options:
·       It has no importance any longer = the practices have been abandoned by men and women of all current generations, in your people/community.
·       The importance has diminished = as compared to 20 years ago, the practices are used less frequently, for fewer types of illnesses, or by limited sections of the people/community (e.g. only by people of a certain age or gender)
·       The importance remains the same = as compared to 20 years ago, the practices are used equally frequent, for the same types of illnesses, and by the same groups of people.
·       The importance has increased = as compared to 20 years ago, the practices are used more frequent, for more types of illnesses or by larger groups of people.
If you have additional information, please write in the box below.

Please indicate what the reasons behind the changes in traditional healing practices are?
Please tick the relevant boxes. You can tick as many as you need to, and fill in additional information in the box below:
·       Prohibition of traditional healing practices or medicines – are you restricted by law to perform your traditional healing practices (e.g. collect certain plants, enter sacred sites, etc..)
·       Loss of traditional knowledge or medicines
·       Lack of community trust in traditional practices or medicines
·       Good access or quality of public health care
·       Other (please specify below)

This question monitors whether indigenous peoples’ right to maintain their traditional health practices is recognized by the State.
Although the majority of the population in developing countries relies on traditional medicine, often public health authorities give recognition only to the practitioners and products of "Western" medicine. Article 24(1) of UNDRIP holds that "Indigenous peoples have the right to their traditional medicines and to maintain their health practices, including the conservation of their vital medicinal plants, animals and minerals." Traditional healing practices and medicines are also addressed in ILO Convention No. 169, Article 25.
