Design Considerations for Evaluating the Impact of PEPFAR: Workshop Summary
PHE is also developing tools to ensure quality and consistency of data, enhance the capability to aggregate results across different countries and different settings, and set priorities using a more open and systematic process.
EVALUATIVE APPROACH AND MAJOR FINDINGS OFTHE IOM PEPFAR EVALUATION COMMITTEE
Speaker Jaime Sepúlveda of the University of California–San Francisco provided background on the work of the IOM expert committee appointed by Congress to conduct an evaluation of PEPFAR implementation. The committee, which Sepúlveda chaired, began work on the project early in its implementation because the evaluation of PEPFAR was mandated to be delivered 3 years after the legislation was passed. Because of the time frame, it was only possible to evaluate the first phase of the implementation. Sepúlveda summarized the major conclusions and recommendations from the committee’s report, PEPFAR Implementation: Progress and Promise (IOM, 2007) (see Box 1-2). Sepúlveda also offered the committee’s perspective on the design of impact measures for future evaluation of PEPFAR.
