About the Project: Expand ELEVATE
Expand ELEVATE (Engaging Local Experts in Validating and Analyzing TB-data to End TB) is a CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention)-supported and PATH-implemented project under the guidance of the Central Tuberculosis Division (CTD). The project aims to build sustainable data analytics capacity among health program staff and promote data-driven decision-making within TB and public health programs to support TB elimination activities at the local level.
In Year 3, the project is pursuing two core strategies: (1) strengthening and scaling data-driven implementation at the local level by empowering staff as data champions, and (2)
fostering innovation and resilience in TB elimination by leveraging data use across systems and services. A dedicated objective under the project focuses on enhancing the TB diagnostic care cascade and surveillance systems by supporting data analytics, building staff capacity, and guiding laboratory network optimization across states and districts.
