Ethiopia's current strategic plan for health is the Health Sector Transformation Plan - HSTP II (2019/20-2024/25). The Ethiopian government, through the Ministry of Health, which serves as the Secretariat of the HSTP, periodically tracks progress in key HSTP indicators including RMNCAH+N indicators, which form more than half of the overall set of indicators and targets. Other national strategic plans include the Information Revolution Roadmap developed in 2016 – one of the four transformation agendas of the health sector – which aims at advancing the methods and practices of collecting, analyzing, presenting, and using information, guides the generation and use of data for decision making at all levels of the health system, including the  implementation and monitoring of RMNCAH+N interventions.

The Global Financing Facility investment case for Ethiopia has been approved and implemented since 2017. Within the GFF investment case, Ethiopia periodically tracks progress for key indicators using existing surveys and health information reporting systems. Therefore, ongoing review of RMNCAH+N indicators remains critical to informing planning and implementation of RMCAH+N interventions.

The country collaboration funded by GFF includes:

• Analytical end-line review of the HSTP I, a comprehensive report on the progress and performance during the HSTP I.
• Thematic in-depth assessment of levels and trends in RMNCAH+N indicators, with a focus on equity in based on the household survey data.
• Technical inputs to develop an analytical report for annual reviews of HSTP-II in 2021/22.
• A suite of analytical methods and tools for the Ethiopian Public Health Institute and the Ministry of Health analytical team to use for future analysis of and reporting on national and subnational performance, using DHIS2 and other data in the context of health plan reviews.
• National and subnational statistical profiles, fact sheets, and policy briefs.
• Scientific publications and reports
