MEASURE Evaluation is funded by the United States Agency for International Development to strengthen capacity in developing countries to gather, interpret, and use data to improve health. We create tools and approaches for rigorous evaluations, providing evidence to address health challenges. And we strengthen health information systems so countries make better decisions at local, subregional, and national levels—and thereby sustain good health outcomes over time.
MEASURE Evaluation is led by the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (UNC), with a consortium comprising five health system expert organizations: ICF International, John Snow, Inc., Management Sciences for Health, Palladium, and Tulane University. The project draws upon UNC’s considerable resources in centers, institutes, and departments to expand its capabilities and expertise. MEASURE Evaluation also collaborates with a wide range of international and national institutions, including the Regenstrief Institute in the areas of biomedical informatics, the World Health Organization on guidance documents, and the Health Data Collaborative to improve health data and achieve health-related Sustainable Development Goals. MEASURE Evaluation also supports the scale-up and use of the University of Oslo’s DHIS 2 platform—a health information software widely used in low- and middle-income countries.
