This annual report shows progress for the FY…
The purpose of the landscape review of existing measurement approaches, frameworks, and metrics utilized to measure partnerships is to inform the selection of evidence-informed, appropriate, and feasible measurement indicators to monitor partnerships within the MOMENTUM consortium. More broadly, the analysis provides an overview of the current state of partnership measurement and commonly utilized approaches including,…
The purpose of this document is to provide guidance on the use of complexity-aware monitoring within the MOMENTUM projects. MOMENTUM—or Moving Integrated, Quality Maternal, Newborn, and Child Health Services, Voluntary Family Planning, and Reproductive Health Care (MNCH/FP/RH) to Scale—is the U.S. Agency for International Development’s (USAID’s) flagship, multi-award program to accelerate reductions in maternal, newborn,…
Complexity-aware monitoring complements traditional monitoring methods by taking into account the uncertain and changing nature of complex situations. Methods that are "complexity-aware" enable us to address the inherent complexity of development programs when there are many competing variables, environments are uncertain, the causal pathways to outcomes are unclear, and stakeholders bring diverse perspectives. Within the…
The movement to deliver health provider in-service training via distance learning has been underway for several years. This trend is a result of many factors, including expanded access to the internet and technology, concerns about taking staff (especially health facility staff) away from their jobs to attend inperson training, and the significant cost of face-to-face…
The movement to deliver health provider in-service training via distance learning has been underway for several years. It is a result of many factors, including expanded access to the internet and technology, concerns about taking staff (in particular, health facility staff) away from their jobs to attend in-person training, and the significant cost implications of…
Last 10 Kilometers 2020 (L10K) examined the implementation challenges of community-based neonatal sepsis management in Ethiopia. They applied the RE-AIM (reach, effectiveness, adoption, implementation, maintenance) framework to examine factors related to intervention management, design, and support and understand how to mitigate the impact of COVID-19 on neonatal mortality. L10K seeks to contribute to sustaining and improving the…
Immunization supply chains (iSCs) move vaccines from manufacturer to point of use with the added complexities of requiring cold chain and an increasing need for agility and efficiency to ensure vaccine quality and availability. Underperforming iSCs have been widely acknowledged as a key constraint to achieving high immunization coverage rates in low- and middle-income countries….
The USAID Zambia District Coverage of Health Services Project (USAID DISCOVER-Health) contributes towards HIV epidemic control while also providing reproductive health and family planning, and maternal and child health services and products. This infographic summarizes the project’s achievements in Zambia between October 2020 and September 2021.
This poster was presented at the 2021 Union Conference. While Uganda’s Ministry of Health (MOH) had declared TB an emergency in 2019, in 2020, COVID-19 pandemic disrupted TB case identification efforts. In response to declines in case notification, between October 2020 and March 2021, the USAID Regional Health Integration to Enhance Services-North, Lango (RHITES-North, Lango)…
We strive to build lasting relationships to produce better health outcomes for all.
