Overview

The Global Health Evaluation and Learning Support Activity (GH EvaLS) provides evaluation, assessment, and learning support for health-related projects and activities at USAID/Washington and USAID Missions. Projects within the USAID Bureau for Global Health’s portfolio support the U.S. Government’s goals to improve global health through preventing child and maternal deaths; controlling the HIV/AIDS epidemic; and combating infectious diseases, such as COVID-19. Andrea Camoens, MPH, is chief of party.

Activities

Under GH EvaLS, ME&A and our subcontractor, Dexis Consulting Group, provide assessments, performance and impact evaluations, and learning and adaptive management services that are transparent, based on the best methods, and oriented towards reinforcing local ownership. This includes four types of evaluations of President’s Emergency Plan For AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) programs: process, outcome, economic, and impact. PEPFAR is a U.S. governmental initiative to address the global HIV/AIDS epidemic.

The contract also involves coordinating and collaborating, as appropriate, with USAID partners, to build synergies and improve the effectiveness and efficiency of project activities. These include the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC); the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, TB, and Malaria (GFATM); and GH cooperating agency implementing partners, such as U.S. and international nongovernmental organizations and private corporations and foundations.

ME&A manages GH EvaLS from our headquarters in Bethesda, Md.

Funding

GH EvaLS is a Time and Materials (T&M) contract with a $39 million ceiling.
