Since 2013, DHIS 2 has become the management information system of choice for many international NGOs working across a variety of sectors. The DHIS 2 symposium brings together experienced DHIS 2 users, technical experts, implementers and trainers across the public and NGO sectors in order to share best practices and lessons learned in the implementation and use of DHIS 2.

The symposium is the only DHIS 2 US-based event.  It is an opportunity for participants to learn about the development roadmap of the software, meet the development team and learn about UiO (University of Oslo) initiatives in advancing the DHIS 2 learning environment. The event will showcase use cases that have adopted DHIS 2 in creative ways to solve data management challenges.

The pre-symposium training will focus on simplified approaches and tools that can be used to set up projects in DHIS 2. Trainees will also be introduced to different data exchange solutions and processes between DHIS 2 instances as well as migration of legacy data from other systems.

To get the most out of this course, some prior exposure to DHIS 2 is required. However, facilitators will go over the basics and main building blocks of the system. At the end of this training, participants will have hands-on experience of front-end configuration, importing of configurations as well as integration and data migration.

Please be advised that we have updated our hosting plans.
