2017 DHIS 2 Symposium Call for Abstracts

 

Dear DHIS 2 Community,

BAO Systems and the University of Oslo are excited to announce the 2017 3rd
annual DHIS 2 Symposium Call for Abstracts! The Symposium is planned for
mid to late March 2017, at the FHI360 Conference Center in Washington DC
with generous support from FHI360.  Dates to follow shortly.

As we head into our third year of the DHIS 2 Symposium, the DHIS 2
landscape continues to expand exponentially.  Implementing partners are
faced with aligning internal systems against national MoH and donor
systems.  This year, the symposium’s themes will explore this multi-system
landscape and how system alignment and interoperability can reduce data
duplication, ensure data quality and data management efficiency.  We will
also look at efforts to drive data usage through innovative apps, analytics
or business intelligence tools.

Topics to be explored include:


   -

   How can we align and harmonize data across stakeholders without
   jeopardizing competing priorities?
   -

   How can advances in system interoperability and data exchange help each
   of these stakeholder get the critical information they need?
   -

   How is your data used in concrete ways to drive decision-making,
   course-correction, and impact of your programs?


   -

   In what innovative ways is DHIS 2 being used - even beyond health
   technical areas?  What innovative apps has our community developed?
   -

   Have another idea? Send it to us!


Please note that attendance fees will be waived for speakers, but we are
unable to cover travel and per diem costs.  Please seek approval with your
employer before submitting an abstract.

Deadline for submitting your abstract is December 9th.  Please limit your
abstract length to 2 pages.  Email your abstract and any questions to:
dhis2symposium@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Many Thanks,

Nicola
