IDinsight

This grant to IDinsight will support a learning partnership with the Ministry of Health of Togo to improve its collection, management, and utilization of quality data for decisions related to family planning and other sexual and reproductive health (SRHR) programs. IDinsight will provide technical assistance to the Department of Maternal and Child Health, which oversees family planning, to develop the skills, tools, and systems needed to improve its data use, a request made by the Ministry of Health. This grant is aligned with our Global Reproductive Equity strategy and also the strategy of the Ouagadougou Partnership, to invest more in those countries within the region who struggle to meet their own family planning goals, which is consistently the case with Togo. (Strategy: Global Reproductive Equity)

IDinsight designs, deploys, and promotes evidence-generating tools designed to help organizations combat poverty worldwide. The organization’s guiding principle is to inform decision makers' priorities, thus maximizing rigor within decision makers' budgetary, time, and operational constraints. The grantee’s goals are to (a) increase the impact of its direct support to decision makers, including by deepening and lengthening relationships; (b) raise expectations and lower barriers so that evidence is used for policymaking and implementation, including by lowering data collection costs; and (c) further enhance the organization's ability to attract and retain top talent. This organizational effectiveness grant will support IDinsight develop one of its fastest-growing service lines, Data on Demand (DoD). DoD is an initiative that delivers high-quality, representative survey data to social sector leaders, and fosters use of these data to improve decision making and impact in the social sector.
