Evidence Action seeks a data collection firm to conduct an endline survey to assess the implementation quality and recipient experiences of a program delivering free reading glasses to adults aged 40 and above in eastern Uganda. Data collection will include surveys with Village Health Teams in Budaka District and glasses recipients in both Budaka and Mbale districts. Survey content will assess Village Health Team knowledge and adherence to screening protocols through scenario-based questions, confirm glasses receipt, measure glasses usage patterns, and capture recipients’ perceived benefits and satisfaction.
Evidence Action is an international nonprofit organization that scales evidence-based and cost-effective health interventions to reduce the burden of poverty. Founded in 2013, the organization operates programs across sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia, reaching millions of people with proven health solutions. Evidence Action's work is grounded in rigorous research, with interventions selected based on demonstrated impact from randomized controlled trials and systematic reviews.
Evidence Action operates four primary programs: Deworm the World, Safe Water Now, Iron and Folic Acid Supplementation, and Syphilis Screening and Treatment. Each program uses a technical assistance model in which Evidence Action partners with governments to design, implement, and measure health programs at scale. This approach prioritizes government ownership, leverages existing infrastructure, and ensures long-term sustainability.
