Strengthening Nutrition Data Management HISP Uganda recently participated in a key meeting in Jinja to support the Ministry of Health - Uganda Nutrition Division;- MoH Nutrition Technical Officers, in collaboration with DHI, MoH IT, UNICEF Uganda. The focus was on developing validation rules, indicators, and SOPs for compiling reports, aligning with the recent revision of HMIS tools to enhance data accuracy and reporting efficiency. This collaboration is a significant step toward strengthening nutrition data management and improving decision-making in Uganda’s health sector. #NutritionData #HMIS #HealthSystems #HISPUganda #DataForAction #HealthInnovation #UNICEF

⁠IDI Flemings project kick off & One Health workshop Extending DHIS2 to new use cases is what HISP Uganda is good at and always ready to try out new implementations beyond Health. HISP Uganda recently met with Infectious Diseases Institute (IDI) Uganda to advance our work on AMR surveillance in Uganda under the Fleming Fund initiative. Following our productive discussions, we sent out a follow-up letter outlining a checklist for requirements gathering, and we are currently in the process of collecting those essential requirements. Our goal is to develop a robust Data Integration and Sharing System (DISIS) that unifies health data across human, animal, and environmental sectors. We are excited to see how our collaboration evolves as we tackle antimicrobial resistance together

Capacity Building of DHIS2 implementers Remains key to HISP Uganda and organising tailored DHIS2 capacity building DHIS2 courses is what we have mastered. Recently, the UGANDA AIDS COMMISSION (UAC) staff (M&E, IT, and program technical staff) were trained by the DHIS2 experts at HISP Uganda Training Centre. UAC plans to further add DHIS2 instances and more use-cases to its existing warehouse. To support this, the training focused on equipping staff with the skills necessary to customize DHIS2, including adding new modules, managing data entry, conducting analysis, and generating reports. The training was a success, and it is expected that new modules will be integrated into the system to enhance workflow and management.

HISP Uganda is excited to be a member of the Climate and Health Technical Working Group (TWG) - Uganda and focal staff attended the first meeting at Regenerate Africa Headquarters in Gaba, Uganda.  The TWGs meetings bring together key stakeholders—including Makerere School of Public Health (MaKSPH), CHAI, Ministry of Finance, Save the Children, AMREF, Regenerate Africa, and more—to further review the Health National Adaptation Plan (HNAP) support documents and strategize on resource mobilization for its implementation to enhance climate resilience in the health sector.  HISP Uganda appreciates the invitation to contribute to this critical dialogue and look forward to continued collaboration in strengthening climate and health initiatives in Uganda and beyond.  #ClimateHealth #PublicHealth #HealthSecurity #HISPUganda #HNAP #ClimateAction #ResourceMobilization
