The
Support for Analysis and Research in Africa (SARA) project is managed
by the Academy for Educational Development. The first SARA contract
ran from 1992-1999; the current contract runs through September
2004. The SARA project supports the work of USAID’s Bureau for Africa,
Office of Sustainable Development (AFR/SD) to improve policies and
programs in health and basic education. Together, AFR/SD and SARA
aim to improve the link between research, policy development and
program design and implementation in Africa by promoting the use
of information in policy and program development, and by identifying
information gaps.
The
project fosters the use of state-of-the-art information in child
survival, nutrition, reproductive health and population, HIV/AIDS
and other infectious diseases, and basic education. SARA carries
out research, analysis, dissemination, and advocacy activities in
collaboration with regional African institutions and networks, joining
with other projects or agencies wherever possible. |
