    Director of Finance

    Job Summary

    • New Incentives implements the All Babies program, a program aimed at reducing preventable childhood deaths through routine vaccinations. The All Babies program encourages caregivers to complete a series of potentially life-saving childhood immunizations for their infant by providing them with a small cash transfer after each vaccine is administered. We currently operate in North West Nigeria, where childhood immunization rates are low. A randomized controlled trial (RCT) found strong evidence that the program significantly increases vaccination rates.
