Rwanda’s Health Sector Strategic Plan (HSSP) IV highlights the need to make HMIS data available at the district level to address quality concerns (8.6) and improve data demand and information use via “stimulating dialogue and actions based on evidence” (10.3). Current USAID efforts to strengthen data use for quality and governance focus on district oversight of health facilities, facility level planning, coordination, and peer learning between facilities.

RIHSA is currently building upon these efforts and GOR strategies by twinning DHMTs that are performing well in priority areas with those DHMTs that are encountering challenges in those same arenas by supporting peer-to-peer learning around the effective use health data to address priority challenge areas and support quality health service delivery in locally identified technical priorities.
