The BID Learning Network invites you to watch a webinar called: “DHIS2 Tools for Immunization Programs | Apps and Dashboards.” Global and national stakeholders have acknowledged that routine immunization programs face significant challenges related to the collection, analysis, availability and use of data for planning, management and improvement of program performance. To address the data challenges, the World Health Organization (WHO) worked with the Health Information Systems Program (HISP) in Tanzania to develop a DHIS2 immunization data quality application suitable for low-income countries. During this webinar the speaker provides a step-by-step guide on how the app works and how it can be applied to immunization programs for data analysis and dashboard use for decision-making. The presenter shared lessons from countries using DHIS2 data quality apps.

This webinar will be of interest to data management specialists, EPI managers, health management information system specialists, and other health care specialists committed to improving data collection, quality and use across health systems.
