Applications, Barcodes, eHealth Plan, Hardware, Peer Learning, People, Practices, Products
Tanzania, Zambia
The BID Learning Network (BLN) invites you to watch a webinar presentation on “Electronic Immunization Registries in Tanzania and Zambia: From Design to Deployment.” The BID Initiative, a PATH project with funding from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation worked closely with the ministries of health in Tanzania and Zambia to address data-related challenges faced by their immunization programs. The BID Initiative developed interventions comprising electronic immunization registries (EIRs), supply chain management, and data use tools. Join us in this webinar where the speakers provide an overview of the process to develop the digital health solutions, from the design stage through to deployment of the system.

BLN Webinar: DHIS2 Tools for Immunization Programs | Apps and Dashboards
Applications, DHIS2, People, Products
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.

BLN Webinar: Challenges in Ascertaining Proof of Vaccination in Routine Childhood Immunization in Burkina Faso
Applications, Hardware, Products, Tools
Burkina Faso
The BID Learning Network invites you to watch a webinar presentation called “Challenges in Ascertaining Proof of Vaccination in Routine Childhood Immunization in Burkina Faso.” In countries taking a fast pace to introduce new vaccines, primary vaccination recording tools, such as vaccination cards or home-based records and health facility-based records, may not be systematically updated or updated in a timely manner to include data recording fields for the new antigens. During this webinar the presenter shared key findings from a six week cross-sectional survey that was conducted in 30 health facilities across ten health districts in Burkina Faso between 2016 and 2017.

Vietnam’s scale-up from a district-level pilot to a national-scale electronic immunization registry
PATH
Vietnam’s immunization registry system prior to 2009 was a paper-based logbook that was prone to errors, time-consuming, and burdensome for health workers. Starting in 2009, the Vietnam National Expanded Program on Immunization (NEPI) and their partner PATH began visualizing the possibilities and benefits that a national-scale electronic immunization registry (EIR) and vaccine-stock-management system could bring to Vietnam. In 2017, the National Immunization Information System (NIIS)—a sustainably planned, government-run, nationwide EIR system—was officially launched along with national mandates on system use. Much of the success of the scale-up of the Vietnam EIR can be attributed to three key factors: (a) planning for scale from the beginning, (b) commitment from the government, and (c) technical partnerships. The story of scaling up, however, did not come without challenges and hurdles. This case study reviews Vietnam’s journey from district pilot to national-level EIR.Feb 25, 2020
