Project Description:
On January 19, 2023, USAID/Tanzania awarded International Business Initiatives (IBI) and SI a four-year contract for the Tanzania Monitoring, Evaluation, Learning and Adaptation (T-MELA) Activity. This activity is to assist the USAID/Tanzania Mission with strategy- and activity-level performance monitoring, evaluation, and learning. This activity will also provide data gathering and verification, data visualization (including Geographic Information Systems), data quality assessments, impact and performance evaluations, assessments, organizational learning, and collaboration among USAID’s implementing partners and DO teams. The MEL Support Platform will also implement a capacity building agenda for the mission, developing a baseline of M&E knowledge within the mission and tailoring a curriculum to provide skills development to mission staff.

The Tanzania Vector Control Activity (TVCA) project is a 5-year USAID funded project focused on improving the health status of women and youth by reducing the burden of malaria through increased access to quality integrated services and improving their government delivery through sustainable funding and capacity building of government staff in vector control and prevention. The purpose of the TVCA is to identify and implement proven, evidence-based vector control approaches in Tanzania aimed at reducing the burden of malaria and moving towards the long-term goal of malaria elimination.

TVCA focuses on improving population level access to insecticide treated bed nets (ITNs) in the fourteen PMI regions and in Zanzibar. This is done through annual quantification of gaps in coverage and procurement and distribution of the ITNs. The TVCA provides the Government of Tanzania (GOT) and malaria partners with state-of-the-art reviews and advice concerning new developments in vector control, and as appropriate, develops plans for implementation of modified or new vector control approaches in Tanzania. TVCA envisions a Tanzania where government institutions and programs are empowered to use evidence in designing and implementing efficient and effective vector control interventions – so that every Tanzanian is protected from malaria. TVCA approach is grounded in National Malaria Control Program’s (NMCP) and Zanzibar Malaria Elimination Program’s (ZAMEP) National Strategic Plans.
