Creating clear and compelling reporting of health data to enhance understanding of critical public health issues
A public health bulletin serves as the voice of the government, alerting professionals and the public to public health threats, sharing updates on the control of infectious diseases and other health problems, and providing clinical recommendations and other guidance.
Health communications are an essential element of an active health data culture and a fundamental responsibility of a robust Ministry ofHealth. Well-written, accurate and accessible reports are the best means to share public health data with a variety of audiences.
Data Portals allow governments to use data to communicate priorities and challenges around key public health issues to the public, the press, elected officials and representatives of civil society. Data Impact has developed a prototype Data Portal application that can be adapted to capture and interpret data sources available in participating countries.
