Part of the scope of the project is to strengthen the Health Information System (HIS) for both Public and Private sectors. HSR has supported the MoPH to develop the MoPH Data warehouse and implement activities to improve data quality and use for improving access to and utilization of quality health data for evidence-based decision making. It is important to make health data available to the public and the civil society in addition to policymakers and program managers, to ensure that the public and the civil society understands the current situation as well as the progress in the health sector.
To facilitate the analysis and use of health data, the Ministry of Public Health (MoPH) developed a data warehouse in collaboration with the USAID-funded, Health Sector Resiliency (HSR) project in Afghanistan. The first version of the MoPH data warehouse, developed using the web-based District Health Information Software (DHIS-2), was launched on August 29th, 2017. Since then, significant work has been done to enhance the system. The MoPH Data warehouse is an online, central repository for all health data, where MoPH, government officials and program implementers can access and monitor program implementation, and services delivery at multiple levels including the central, regional, provincial and district level. In addition, through the data warehouse, the MoPH will provide easier access to information to facilitate evidence-based decision making.
The Ministry of Public Health (MoPH) in Afghanistan collects the following different types of data:
The following data sources have been included in the DW.
HSR is seeking a qualified ICT/data management specialist to work closely with the Information and Communication Technology (ICT) team to develop an interactive national health public portal for the Ministry of Public Health (MoPH) with data derived from the MoPH DHIS2-based data warehouse.
The dashboard will be a live, interactive matrix with different filters as proposed/agreed by the MoPH. The data will be filtered by period, location, health facility type, specialty, size in hospital beds and service types.
The ideal candidate will have the skills and experience required to develop an information portal for a Ministry of Health.
