MONITORING AND EVALUATION PLAN - TBC India

3. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The Global Fund (GF) has approved a country proposal submitted by India CCM for TB through a
Round 9 grant. The grant has been awarded for a period of five years with a first phase of 2 years. There
are three PRs – Central TB Division, International Union against TB and Lung Disease (The Union) and
The World Vision India (WVI) in the Round 9 TB Grant. The National programme Division will provide
treatment support in this proposal with focus on MDR TB while The Union and World Vision India will
implement civil society components of the proposal.
The approved funding for World Vision India as PR over 5 years is US $ 10.9 million with approved
Phase I budget as US$ 3.73 million. With the overall goal to decrease morbidity and mortality due to
drug resistant TB (DR-TB) in India and improve access to quality TB care and control services through
enhanced civil society participation, World Vision India along with The Union as Principal Recipients
envisages to strengthen the quality of basic DOTS services through civil society participation and
improve access to marginalized and vulnerable populations.
While signing the grant agreement, Global Fund has attached few condition precedents to the
disbursement of the grant as described in Annex A of the Grant agreement.
Submission of this Monitoring and Evaluation Plan (“The M&E Plan”) by World Vision
India is to meet and satisfy the condition precedent as set out for the second disbursement
of the grant that would be subject to the satisfaction of the following condition(s):
B.2.a. the delivery by the PR to the Global Fund of a plan for monitoring and evaluating planned activities (“the
M&E Plan”) that follows guidelines from the Global Fund and that incorporates the recommendations made by
the program stakeholders and the Global Fund upon completion of the Monitoring and Evaluation Systems
Strengthening Tool. Such a plan should be devised in collaboration with the other PR (The Union) and shall
demonstrate, in particular the linkages between the Program’s management information system (MIS) and the
National M&E Plan clearly evidencing how the program will contribute to the strengthening of the National M&E
System. The plan should also include clear guidelines and reporting mechanisms for the sub recipient.
