Harnessing Data's Power for a Healthier, More Equitable World
Imagine a world where data doesn't just exist—it empowers, enlightens, and elevates every aspect of global health. We're on the cusp of such a revolution, but the path forward requires more than just information; it demands a robust ecosystem where sharing, applying, and accessing data isn't just possible—it's the norm. Our Data Collaborative Core envisions a future where data-driven solutions empower communities, inform policy, and drive sustainable improvements in health outcomes, ensuring equitable access to quality health for all.

Demonstration Projects
Expertise from our collaborators in low- and middle-income countries is critical to designing the Data Collaborative. During this formative phase, we are learning from a number of initiatives to better understand the unique needs, challenges, and opportunities of multi-country data stewardship and analysis. Currently, our efforts are focused on projects anchored in Kenya, Ghana, and India.
