New Publication: Data Quality Considerations in Human Resources Information Systems Strengthening

The Capacity Project has published a new technical brief on data quality: Data Quality Considerations in Human Resource Information Systems Strengthening. The brief was written by Samwel Wakibi, our HRIS advisor for Kenya, Uganda and Southern Sudan and our expert on data quality.

Data quality issues have been central to the program experience of the Capacity Project. Experience with issues of data quality has particularly been gained within the Project’s focus on strengthening human resources information systems (HRIS) to support health workforce planning and management. This brief discusses concepts of data quality and provide examples of the importance of data management specific to the field of HRH, illustrated by the Capacity Project’s experience with HRIS strengthening in developing countries.
