TB DIAH

What TB DIAH does

TB DIAH (Tuberculosis Data, Impact Assessment and Communications Hub) is a USAID-funded international development project, established in 2018 under Associate Award No. 7200AA18LA00007 as part of USAID's Global Accelerator to End Tuberculosis. It is implemented by the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partnership with John Snow, Inc. (JSI), and operates from Chapel Hill, North Carolina. The project supports decision-makers in 24 high-burden TB countries — including Afghanistan, Bangladesh, India, Indonesia, Nigeria, Pakistan, Philippines, South Africa, and Vietnam — with the generation, analysis, and use of quality TB data to inform and scale up effective TB services. Its mandate responds to the global TB burden, in which 11 million people fall ill and 1.6 million die annually despite the disease being preventable and curable.

The core technology platform centers on the TB Data Hub (hub.tbdiah.org), a country-level dashboard and data visualization environment, surrounded by a suite of six specialized assessment and planning tools: PBMEF (Performance-Based M&E Framework), D2AC (Data-to-Action Continuum Toolkit), ARC (Assessment of Data Collection, Reporting & Analysis Capacity), MESSA (M&E and Surveillance Systems Assessment), QTSA (Quality of Tuberculosis Services Assessment), and STEP (Surveillance and TB M&E Strengthening Plan). Adjacent products include a Resource Library, e-Learning courses (e.g., TB Contact Investigation for Frontline Workers; Finding Cases among People Living with HIV) hosted on training.tbdiah.org, and a Center of Excellence network for cross-country best-practice sharing. Distribution is direct: field-based technical assistance and capacity building delivered to National Tuberculosis Programs (NTPs), augmented by online platforms, webinars, and conference presence (notably The Union World Conference on Lung Health).

The business model is a managed services structure funded entirely through the USAID cooperative agreement — TB DIAH does not sell products commercially and pricing is not applicable. There is no disclosed revenue figure, no equity funding, and no commercial customer base; the project's economics are governed by USAID award performance, periodic renewal cycles, and the strategic priorities of the U.S. Government's Global Accelerator to End TB. The core operational team is reported at 1-10 personnel, with execution capacity drawn from the UNC and JSI consortium rather than internal headcount scale.

Core offering

TB DIAH provides technical assistance, capacity building, and specialized assessment tools to National Tuberculosis Programs (NTPs) in 24 countries, enabling the generation, analysis, and use of quality TB data. Its core offerings include the TB Data Hub for visualization, six standardized M&E assessment tools (PBMEF, D2AC, ARC, MESSA, QTSA, STEP), an e-Learning platform, a Resource Library, and a Center of Excellence network, all delivered as USAID-funded services free of charge to government stakeholders.

Product overview

TB DIAH (Tuberculosis Data, Impact Assessment and Communications Hub) is a USAID-funded project implemented by the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partnership with John Snow, Inc. It functions as a coordination and knowledge-sharing platform rather than a single software product. The core offering is the TB Data Hub, which provides data dashboards and visualization tools. Around this central platform, TB DIAH offers six specialized assessment tools: ARC (Assessment of Data Collection, Reporting & Analysis Capacity), D2AC (Data-to-Action Continuum Toolkit), MESSA (M&E and Surveillance Systems Assessment), PBMEF (Performance-Based M&E Framework), QTSA (Quality of TB Services Assessment), and STEP (Surveillance and TB M&E Strengthening Plan). Additional resources include a Resource Library containing TB-related publications and guidelines, e-Learning Courses for capacity building, and a Center of Excellence network. These tools collectively support national TB programs worldwide in improving data generation, analysis, and use for TB control.

Broad incumbents

• WHO Global TB Programme: WHO's global TB technical authority that publishes global TB reports and standards; directly relevant as the upstream normative body whose indicators and frameworks TB DIAH's PBMEF aligns with.
• Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria: The largest multilateral financier of TB programs worldwide; comparable as a major TB funding and program oversight entity that country NTPs interact with alongside USAID-funded mechanisms like TB DIAH.

Direct peers

• The International Union Against Tuberculosis and Lung Disease (The Union): Global scientific organization operating TB technical assistance projects across many of the same 24 countries; directly comparable as a TB-focused technical assistance and conference convener (TB DIAH exhibits at The Union Conference).
• John Snow, Inc. (JSI): TB DIAH's core implementation partner; comparable as a public health firm delivering USAID-funded TB and broader health systems strengthening projects with M&E toolkits across high-burden countries.
• Stop TB Partnership: UN-hosted global partnership coordinating TB stakeholders, donors, and country programs; directly comparable to TB DIAH as a coordination/knowledge hub supporting NTPs with global TB data and policy tooling.
• KNCV Tuberculosis Foundation: Dutch-based international NGO providing TB technical assistance and M&E support across high-burden countries; directly comparable as another major provider of TB program strengthening, M&E, and surveillance support to NTPs.
• MEASURE Evaluation (UNC): Long-running USAID-funded M&E project also implemented by UNC Chapel Hill; directly comparable as a sibling UNC-implemented USAID project delivering M&E frameworks, indicators, and capacity strengthening — sharing TB DIAH's institutional home and methodology.
