IHME case study

Aidinfo's case study on the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME) makes particular reference to research on Development Assistance for Health and the follow up policy report ‘Financing Global Health 2009: Tracking Development Assistance for Health'. For IHME the process of collecting and analysing data on global health flows led to a number of challenges.

The use case outlines in more detail

1. what IHME is trying to elicit from the health aid data;

2. what weaknesses IHME idenitfied in the data with specific focus on offical aid flows and private aid flows from foundations and NGOs;

3. what a better system of data on health aid flows would look like;

4. what IHME's needs for better data are
