In Data Governance, Good Policies aren't enough. Our Senior Data Lead, Tracey Li, has written a really insightful article about the challenge of moving from policy to action in data governance. She's raising three key areas of action to realize policies: 🔸 Creating context-specific policies 🔸 Focusing on training and capacity development  🔸 Supporting knowledge sharing and peer exchange Dive deeper into this topic ⬇

Last week, we had the pleasure of hosting Carolyne Faith, CHW Engagement Manager at the Community Health Impact Coalition, at our #Zanzibar office. While Carolyne was in town for the Tanzania Health Summit, we used the opportunity to introduce her to a group of dedicated community health workers from the Jamii ni Afya Program. These community health workers provide essential maternal, newborn, and child health services across Zanzibar. Many of them are among the first 60 participants to complete the Community Health Impact Coalition's online advocacy training for CHWs, which is now being tested in Swahili. We love seeing this initiative arming Zanzibar's community health workforce to advocate for improved community health! ✊🏾

There is broad agreement that community health workers deserve fair compensation for their work. But the question remains: how can this be done efficiently and effectively? We are so grateful for the recognition of our work with Medic on exploring how digital payments can improve how community health workers are compensated for their important contributions to improving the health of the communities they serve. More to come on this soon 👀

What a week at the Tanzania Health Summit! 🌍 This week, we had the incredible opportunity to engage with health leaders and changemakers at the annual gathering, the Tanzania Health Summit 🎉 🔹 We hosted two insightful panel discussions that explored digital health solutions and innovative approaches to healthcare delivery. We were excited to be able to fill the rooms and these conversations sparked really meaningful dialogue. 🔹 Our booth was a hub of activity! It was great to connect with Ministers of Health, partners and others passionate about driving positive change in health. 🔹 The Digital Health Leaders Connect event, co-hosted between D-tree and the Ministry of Health Zanzibar, the Zanzibar Presidential Delivery Bureau and the E-Government Authority of Zanzibar, brought the digital health community in #Tanzania closer and sparked informal and insightful dialogue. A huge thank you to everyone who joined us at the booth and contributed to the discussions. Together, we are shaping the future of health in Tanzania and the region. More to come about our take aways!

🌍 The Global Digital Compact: A Milestone for #Health 🏥 Yesterday’s adoption of the Global Digital Compact at #UNGA represents a major step forward in shaping the future of digital cooperation and innovation across the globe.
