Global Health Partnership Survey

The Consortium of Universities for Global Health is distributing this survey to programs and practitioners worldwide to assess the value and impact of international funding. The survey intends to assess the effect on projects impacted by donor funding cuts and freezes by USAID, NIH, other U.S. agencies and additional donor governments (e.g., France, UK, Japan, etc.). The information will be used anonymously to raise awareness among policymakers, donors, and global health advocates, highlighting the urgent need for alternative funding strategies and policy interventions that can mitigate the negative consequences of these cuts. Aggregated summaries will be shared globally and on a country-by-country basis. This report, disseminated by the Consortium of Universities for Global Health, will empower stakeholders to collaboratively develop strategic solutions that not only safeguard essential health services but also maintain the diplomatic and collaborative gains achieved through donor-funded initiatives. By systematically addressing cuts in development funding, this effort seeks to reimagine sustainable funding models for global health in times of transition, ensuring resilient health systems and robust international partnerships.

We invite anyone involved and participating in any role in a funded global health project(s) from an international agency or country. Please respond to the following questions regarding a single project in which you have participated. No personal identifiable information is requested.

If you are or have been involved in multiple projects, you are welcome to complete the survey separately for each additional project(s) with which you may be involved.
