Measuring Results
CMMB is continually focused on achieving measurable outcomes. We utilize a results-based management approach that:
- integrates strategy and measurement to improve decision-making
- ensures transparency and accountability
To accurately measure population-based changes over time, CMMB conducts comprehensive baseline assessments, as well as follow-up assessments at regular intervals. We utilize a robust set of age and sex disaggregated output and outcome indicators to measure performance and inform decision-making.
To effectively support local and national health systems, CMMB utilizes national Ministry of Health data collection tools to the extent possible, and designs new tools, particularly for community-based activities, when no standard tool exists.
Data quality is a top concern, and we ensure high-quality data through:
- regular spot checks
- stakeholder training
- supportive supervision
- monthly and quarterly data reviews
CMMB works closely and comprehensively with communities, health facilities, government officials and partners to ensure progress is reviewed in a participatory manner.
