Work Package 7: Landscaping and Connection to DHIS-2

A comprehensive analysis will be conducted to assess existing epidemic preparedness data collection systems, followed by stakeholder meetings to coordinate and allocate tasks. Collaboration with the Ethiopian Ministry of Health and EPHI will be maintained, involving policymakers and health system managers as key dashboard users. The project will develop software to link the digital system to local DHIS-2 systems and ensure ownership by Ethiopian authorities. Additionally, the project aligns with the systematics of Africa CDC, contributing data to their platforms and supporting the development of a generic version of the IDSR for customization across African countries. Furthermore, a Ph.D. program in pathogen genomics analytics will be established with the support of experienced scientists.

  • 1. To perform landscaping analysis of available digital systems for epidemic preparedness and monitoring in Ethiopia.

    2. To provide semi-real-time linkage of IDSR data and dashboards with the Ethiopian DHIS-2 system.

    3. To create a generic, replicable, and scalable version of the digital epidemic preparedness and monitoring platform for Africa.

  • 1. Landscaping analysis.

    2. DHIS-2 linkage Ethiopia.

    3. Prepare scaling to Africa.
