Global leprosy strategy 2016-2020: Accelerating towards a leprosy-free world - Monitoring and Evaluation Guide

This Monitoring & Evaluation Guide is the third document on the Global Leprosy Strategy 2016–2020 “Accelerating towards a leprosy-free world” and follows closely the August 2016 publication of the Operational Manual. To monitor progress towards the Global Leprosy Strategy 2016–2020 targets and to assess the implementation of such a wide and comprehensive umbrella, a stronger system must be put in place, counting on new tools. To help countries to adopt these new tools and to have a common understanding on the means and procedures to measure the extent and direction of progress, the Guide has been developed by the Global Leprosy Programme with inputs from several partners and core stakeholders, including leprosy programme managers. Its audience comprises national and regional/state level managers of leprosy programmes as well as consultants that support countries as technical assistant providers and as monitors of programmes and projects on leprosy.
