Les Comores franchissent une étape importante dans la lutte contre le paludisme avec la formation et la validation de l’outil CHAP (Climate Hazards and Health Analytics Platform). En intégrant les données climatiques et sanitaires, cette plateforme innovante renforce la surveillance prédictive et soutient une prise de décision proactive pour prévenir les risques de transmission du paludisme.

A look back at how HISP Rwanda supported the digital transformation of vaccination data management in Comoros by transitioning from an Excel-based system to DHIS2, improving data quality, real-time reporting, and enabling evidence-based decision-making across the immunization program.

HISP Rwanda supported a national training on the integration of e-Tracker and e-VLMIS with barcode scanning technology to strengthen vaccine traceability, data quality, and immunization supply chain management in Rwanda. Through technical facilitation and hands-on sessions, HISP Rwanda contributed to building the capacity of central-level teams, EPI supervisors, and Zipline staff on enhanced digital immunization workflows and reporting systems.

Rwanda continues to strengthen its health system through digital innovation with the launch of Performance-Based Financing (PBF) Version 3. Developed with support from HISP Rwanda, the upgraded platform enhances efficiency, transparency, and data-driven decision-making in health financing.

KARAME has entered Rwanda’s Top 10 Education apps on Google Play just three weeks after launch, reaching over 38,000 installs and 47,000 devices nationwide. Developed through a collaboration between HISP Rwanda, Ministry of Education Rwanda (MINEDUC), Save the Children, Waliku, and HISP Mozambique, the platform is helping schools digitally monitor student attendance and support efforts to keep every child connected to education in Rwanda.

Ensuring that every vaccine reaches the right place at the right time requires more than strong supply chains, it depends on clear visibility, consistent supervision, and timely use of data. In Chad, efforts to strengthen immunization oversight have led to the adoption of a digital approach that connects field supervision with real-time reporting.

In this article, we take a closer look at how the PEV Reports Generator, integrated with the DHIS2 Supervision Tool, is helping transform routine immunization monitoring, turning scattered data into actionable insights and enabling better decisions for improved vaccine delivery and logistics management.

HISP Rwanda, in collaboration with the Ministry of Health Rwanda, developed the Health Partnerships Management Platform (HPMP) to modernize and simplify partnership management. The digital solution streamlines MOU applications, approvals, and project monitoring by replacing manual, paper-based processes with a centralized online system. HPMP improves efficiency, transparency, coordination, and real-time tracking of health partner activities, enabling stronger collaboration and faster delivery of health interventions across Rwanda.

🇹🇩✨ Le Tchad franchit une nouvelle étape dans la modernisation de son système de santé à travers la digitalisation du pilotage sanitaire et la mise en place d’un Dossier Médical Électronique (DME). Avec l’appui technique de HISP Rwanda, cette initiative vise à renforcer la qualité des soins, améliorer la coordination des services de santé et faciliter la prise de décision grâce à des données fiables et intégrées.

Sous le leadership du Dr Pierre SOMSE, la République centrafricaine franchit une étape importante dans la transformation numérique de son système de santé avec la mise en place d’un Dossier Médical Électronique au Centre d’écoute des jeunes du CNRISTTAR. Cette innovation permet de digitaliser l’ensemble du parcours du patient et d’améliorer la qualité, la continuité et l’efficacité des soins.

Now available on the Google Play Store, Karame is an official mobile application developed for MINEDUC to help schools digitally track and manage student attendance in real time. Designed for headteachers and teachers, the app works offline and syncs securely with the national system, enabling early identification of students at risk of dropping out. This milestone highlights the power of collaboration and technology in advancing inclusive and equitable education across Rwanda. Rwanda is accelerating its mission to ensure every child is in school through the Zero Out-of-School Children (Zero OOSC) project, which aims to reintegrate over 177,000 children into the education system.

HISP Rwanda soutient les Comores dans l’intégration des données climat et santé dans le SNIS/DHIS2, renforçant ainsi une approche proactive, basée sur les données, et contribuant à l’avancement de l’approche One Health.
