Millennium Villages Project in Sub-Saharan Africa

MVP
Start date: January 2005
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The Millennium Villages Project involves the coordinated and simultaneous delivery of a package of proven interventions in health, agriculture, infrastructure and education. The project works in partnership with governments in 10 African countries in areas where progress towards achieving the Millennium Development Goals has been insufficient. The Project evaluation will test the following hypotheses: 1. That after 5 years of operation, villages exposed to the MVP intervention will have a lower rate of under-5 mortality and parallel gains in MDG-related secondary outcomes when compared to similar villages not receiving the intervention. 2. That the coordinated delivery a multi-sector package of health and development interventions implemented through a broad-based local partnership is feasible in a diversity of sub-Saharan African contexts, and; 3. The intervention package can be delivered at a scalable cost of $40 per person per year in the health sector and $110 per person per year in total
