IHME Surveys

The Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME) serves as the independent evaluation partner to organizations around the world to better understand how well policies and programs are working and why. IHME has designed and conducted rigorous evaluations that fill critical information gaps for decision-making.

A key component of the work is primary data collection to gather inputs for evaluating the impact of programs and policies. Each evaluations project is different, but most use surveys. These include techniques such as:

• Census and household interviews
• Biometric data captured in specific households
• Medical record reviews
• Health facility interviews
• Verbal autopsies
