Abdoulaye Maïga, PhD, works on large scale evaluations of RMNCH&N interventions coverage and impact and quality of care for local, national and global accountability.
Experiences & Accomplishments
My scientific interests are related to large scale evaluations of health interventions coverage, impact and quality of care for local, national and global accountability with a focus on reproductive, maternal, newborn, child and adolescent health, and nutrition (RMNCAH-N). I have extensive experience in intervention evaluations and led several program evaluations, household and health facility surveys in Low- and Middle-Income Countries. I’m also very instrumental in strengthening country-level evidence and technical capacity to support health program monitoring and evaluation. The overall aim of my work is to contribute to improving health programs planning, monitoring, and evaluation in low income and high-burden countries.
