The Disease Control Priorities Project's (DCPP) objective is to improve the health of people in developing countries by fostering an environment that supports evidence-based decisionmaking in global health. The distinctive contribution of DCPP is to combine analysis based principally on economics and epidemiology, resulting in evidence-based policies, priorities, resource allocations, and intervention choices.
