Examples include repeated stock-outs in remote service points, inaccessible health information, missed antenatal follow-up, long travel time, post-flood service disruption or poor feedback after a complaint.

Used responsibly, CLM can provide an additional accountability layer that helps district and national teams see not only whether coverage is improving, but whether persistent gaps are closing for people most at risk of being left behind.
