How MEASURE Evaluation Has Benefitted PEPFAR and Ministries of Health Abstract:

The President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) aims to achieve epidemic control by taking effective interventions to scale, applying a continuous learning approach to program performance, and intensifying efforts to identify HIV/AIDS cases. MEASURE Evaluation’s work has advanced PEPFAR’s aim in two primary ways:

  • Supporting the implementation, management, and capacity building of the Data for Accountability, Transparency and Impact Monitoring (DATIM) system, and
  • Increasing the capacity of health information systems (HIS) and improving enabling environments for HIS improvement at global, regional, and country levels—especially in PEPFAR countries.

MEASURE Evaluation’s direct contributions to the implementation of DATIM and leveraging DATIM resources are extensive. Our work encompasses data exchange, help desk support to enhance system and data use, and capacity building for DATIM users, as well as administration and oversight of a constellation of DATIM subcontractors. This brief shares more.
