Cet évènement s’inscrit dans le cadre d’une série de webinaires de renforcement des capacités visant à améliorer les compétences nationales en matière de chaîne d’approvisionnement des programmes de MTN et à créer un espace de partage d’expérience entre pays.

This webinar is part of a series of capacity-building webinars to enhance national NTD program supply chain competences and create space for cross-country experience sharing.

The economic impact model and supporting disease-specific tools estimate the direct and indirect economic impact, efficiencies, and societal benefits of investing in NTD programs and interventions. The workshop will explain how NTD programs can use the supporting tools to develop investment cases to advocate for domestic resources and prioritize NTD investments in a multi-disease environment. It will also describe how, with support from HKI and Deloitte, Sierra Leone’s NTD program will pilot these tools and serve as the advisor on country needs, program and financial data, user testing of the tools, and utilization of the outputs for advocacy. After incorporating the feedback from the pilot in Sierra Leone, the Act | West team will make the tools available to all supported countries to create investment cases that enhance advocacy efforts for domestic resource mobilization for NTD programming.

The USAID Act to End NTDs | West program's two-phase gender analysis examines the differential impact of NTDs by gender, including how gender norms and power differentials may impact NTD program results and how the program can help advance gender equality. Phase one of the gender analysis consists of a literature review, drawing on published and grey literature, as well as an initial analysis of available quantitative data.
