Collaborate with local research and academic institutions to conduct analytical reviews of HF and community-based data

Standardise and diffuse SOPs on data analysis, dissemination and use

Dissemination

Produce summaries of key finding (bulletins) every 3 to 6 months and distribute through mass media to all stakeholders

Make use of dashboards and summary charts to convey information to target populations accordingly

Data demand and use

Sensitise and train clinical staff, facility managers and local level decision-makers on the use of information for monitoring their activities

Ensure that HF and community-based information is used in health sector planning

Render managers of RHI autonomous in defining their interventions and data needs and implement them
