(2) Strategic use of local data to identify needs and develop a consensus among partners on outcomes

(3) Financing strategies to map current investments, shift funding to cost-effective prevention programs and secure sustainable funding

(4) Capacity building to implement evidence-based programs

(5) Measurement of population-level changes.”
