Today, approximately half of all deaths in the world go unrecorded; accordingly, health policy decisions are often based on inadequate information. Data for Health, funded by Bloomberg Philanthropies and The Gates Foundation, partners with countries to improve public health data and use of data for policymaking.
Collaborating institutions in the Initiative are: Vital Strategies, CDC Foundation, Global Health Advocacy Incubator, the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, Pan American Health Organization, U.N. Economic and Social Commission for Asia and Pacific, U.N. Economic Commission for Africa, U.N. High Commissioner for Refugees, U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Howard University, The Pacific Community, and the World Health Organization.
