Through the Data Use Partnership project, 17�Թ��� works with the Ethiopian Ministry of Health and local universities to drive research and policy by producing vital evidence on how well-functioning health information systems can improve primary health care. The partnership has resulted in an increase in health data reporting from as low as 21% per region to an average 91%. Increased evidence use has informed programming that has resulted in a 36% increase in full immunization access among children and a 25% increase in modern contraception use.

Through the MozNorte project, 17�Թ��� Education leads a consortium of organizations supporting the implementation of the Community Driven Development Fund to improve access to livelihoods and natural resource management in rural Northern Mozambique. We work in collaboration with UNOPS and Mozambique’s National Fund for Sustainable Development (FNDS) to strengthen community governance and facilitate environmentally centered livelihood and infrastructure projects. The initiative aims to reach 108 rural communities, representing up to 27,000 families, with a focus on youth and displaced populations to empower vulnerable households and reinforce resilience in one of the region’s most fragile areas.

Building on a long-term partnership with Mondelēz International, 17�Թ��� Education is scaling up implementation of the CocoaLife Quality Education Project to improve education and reduce child labor risks in Côte d’Ivoire. After successfully piloting the approaches in 15 communities, 17�Թ��� Education is strengthening School Management Committees (COGES) across the Gbôklé, Nawa, San-Pedro, and Loh-Djiboua regions in 65 cocoa-growing communities. Through our COGES strengthening models, which the government has adopted for national use, we train committee members, coach district education advisors, and support community involvement strategies that sustain educational improvements.
