This includes analyzing local trends, identifying gaps in services, and generating evidence-based recommendations to inform policies, programs, and investments.
Monitoring and Alignment - To evaluate the effectiveness of local strategies and interventions by tracking outcomes, measuring progress, and identifying areas for improvement.
