Global Health Program Evaluation, Analysis, Research, and Learning (GH PEARL)
Summary
The GH PEARL project builds upon the success of the Measure Program’s more than 25 years of implementing USAID-funded global health monitoring, evaluation, research, and learning (MERL) activities in the areas of family planning, reproductive, maternal, newborn, and child health and nutrition (FP/RMNCH+N), HIV/AIDS, malaria, and tuberculosis. The GH PEARL project joins three large USAID-funded projects currently managed by the Measure Program—Data for Impact (D4I); TB Data, Impact Assessment and Communications Hub (TB DIAH); and PMI Measure Malaria. GH PEARL contributes to effective generation and use of data to strengthen policies and program implementation to improve health and save lives in USAID partner countries. GH PEARL works to improve the quality, availability, and timeliness of evidence (including the development of robust metrics, methods, guidance and tools and synthesis of knowledge and evidence) and to strengthen the capacity of local organizations and institutions.
