This note provides an overview of the methodological approach being taken to analyse cost-effectiveness of Camfed’s programme in Tanzania and Zimbabwei. It highlights the association between Value for Money and cost-effectiveness, and pays particular attention to the importance of measuring cost-effectiveness from an equity perspective. It further identifies the implications of calculating cost-effectiveness with consideration of sustainability, scalability and replicability of Camfed’s programme.
