The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) offers the MEASURE Evaluation Phase IV grant to significantly advance health sector monitoring and evaluation (M&E) globally. Building on decades of effort, this initiative aims to strengthen host-country systems, enabling them to generate high-quality health information crucial for informed decision-making at local, national, and global levels. The ultimate goal is to improve health programs and policies, leading to better health outcomes. This five-year, $181 million cooperative agreement will focus on four key results: enhancing the collection, analysis, and use of routine health data; improving country-level capacity for health information system management; developing and applying new methods and tools for health information challenges; and increasing rigorous evaluation capacity. This grant is designed to empower nations with robust health data infrastructure.
