Description:
TIFA will improve government capacity and commitment, leverage domestic resources to maximize impact and sustain results as we work together to achieve the global target of treating 40 million people with TB by 2022. As USAID looks forward to the day when foreign assistance for TB is no longer necessary, TIFA will emphasize host government ownership and accountability of the TB programs in priority countries. TIFA recipients will create agreements with local government entities to build organizational and technical capacity to improve TB services and to sustain results long after the life of the project. Through TIFA, host governments will be empowered to implement locally-generated, context-specific solutions; focus on the scale- up of new technologies with proven results to improve TB case-detection and treatment outcomes, and utilize new approaches to increase local ownership. Newly created partnerships with local government entities will identify quantifiable milestones and targets in order to strengthen accountability of local governments and increase ownership of their TB program. TIFA s primary objectives include: Developing efficient mechanisms for support to national TB programs and local government entities to effectively implement National TB Strategic Plans; Empowering local government entities to become more self-reliant; and Leveraging and advocating for additional domestic resources for TB at all levels among local government entities.
