D4H - Civil Registration and Vital Statisics - CRVS
Project Abstract
As one of its major activities, the Civil Registration and Vital Statistics (CRVS) Program of the Bloomberg Philanthropies Data for Health (D4H) initiative supports countries to integrate cause of death (CoD) data into their CRVS system. Seamless integration of the CoDs generated from various data sources into the very diverse and variable existing processes of CRVS systems is a major undertaking in terms of IT system implementation. The integration is challenging because of the pre-conditions such as human resources, infrastructure, governance, but as well the interoperability with existing IT systems Swiss TPH therefore provides health informatics expertise a) to set up and support CRVS related informatic systems and b) to analyse the current CRVS related information system in Cambodia and to outline a new architecture and implementation plan for enhanced CRVS information systems.
As part of this current agreement, it is expected that consultancy work in the field of IT for CRVS will be provided to the following D4H country: Cambodia.
