Dalberg Data Insights developed epidemiological surveillance tools in Brazil, Zambia and West Africa. The tool converges incidence data collected from health centers together with population mobility to • Define which regions/department can be qualified as importer and/or exporter of the disease • Predict risks of an epidemic outbreak • Define disease eradication impact on one area versus another one • Evaluate the most strategic areas to deploy campaigns • Provide analytics and reporting of the key components. The ultimate goal is to empower the final end-users, such as Ministry of Health and local entities by providing them decision making support tool, based on data collection - analytics and reporting, to opt for preventive mode while acting at the source of the problem rather than the consequences. The project involved capacity building, including user training & documentation, project sustainability & viability on the long term.
