USAID · MANAGEMENT SCIENCES FOR HEALTH, INC. — $49.2M (ETH)
Key claim: USAID obligated $49.2 million to Management Sciences for Health, Inc. for the Eliminate Tuberculosis from Ethiopia program to improve TB, DR-TB and TB/HIV services.
Abstract
Agency for International Development obligated $49.2M to MANAGEMENT SCIENCES FOR HEALTH, INC., for work in ETH. ELIMINATE TUBERCULOSIS FROM ETHIOPIA (ETBE) WILL PROVIDE COMPREHENSIVE PROGRAM SUPPORT TO THE NATIONAL AND SUB-NATIONAL TB PROGRAMS TO IMPROVE ACCESS AND UTILIZATION OF QUALITY TB, DR-TB AND TB/HIV SERVICES WHILE FOCUSING AND PRIORITIZING INTERVENTIONS, GEOGRAPHIC AREAS AND TARGET POPULATIONS.
Why this matters
This award marks a mid-sized USAID commitment to tuberculosis elimination in Ethiopia, one of the world’s high TB-burden countries, and channels funds through Management Sciences for Health as the lead implementer. It broadens the observed USAID global-health portfolio beyond HIV-focused Malawi awards into integrated TB/DR-TB/TB-HIV programming, useful for tracking geographic and disease-area diversification of U.S. health assistance.
