Author(s): Data for Impact

Abstract:

Data for Impact, a five-year cooperative agreement funded by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), helps countries mobilize the power of data to improve programs, policies, and—ultimately—health outcomes.

This approach document focuses on strengthening individual and institutional capacity to generate evidence for health decision making and to receive direct funding from USAID. At the foundation of this approach is our belief that individuals and institutions have existing capacity, and they should lead in their own capacity strengthening.
