Lives Saved Tool (LiST)

A mathematical modelling tool that estimates the impact of scaling up high-impact MNCH and nutrition interventions in low- and middle-income countries. It estimates the impact of these interventions on health outcomes to quantify the potential effectiveness of an intervention or package of interventions. Calculates changes in cause-specific mortality based on intervention coverage change, intervention effectiveness for that cause and the percentage of cause-specific mortality sensitive to that intervention. Has built in data sources based on country-level estimates from WHO, UNICEF, UNFPA and World Bank and the United Nations Population Division and the UN Inter-agency Group for child mortality estimation. But the data can also be replaced with user data.
