What’s interesting this week…
Funding: $100,000 for PEPFAR PLHIV Client Segmentation Analysis
Data.FI’s Data Methods Challenge is seeking easy-to-implement analytical approaches to identify PLHIV that are able to pay for HIV services and treatment. PEPFAR is interested in population profiles that incorporate:
demographic dimensions (who)
geographic dimensions (where)
temporal dimensions (when)
Data.FI encourages competitors to leverage both novel open data sources, while also demonstrating the potential for leveraging previously untapped data sources to demonstrate how PEPFAR could support countries to achieve and sustain HIV epidemic control through a total market approach, providing a mix of public and private sector services.
Successful applicants can receive up to $100,000 USD in grants for activities to be implemented no later than November 12, 2021.
