Kenya: Advanced Excel and QGIS Training Factsheet
WHO, in partnership with Kenya's Ministry of Health, supported a fully virtual training programme on Advanced Excel and QGIS, reaching 875 Health Records and Information Officers across all 47 counties. The training focused on strengthening skills in data visualization, management, and analysis, key areas for evidence-based decision-making and improved health outcomes. Initially piloted in six counties, the programme successfully scaled nationwide through a virtual model that expanded access and demonstrated the viability of cost-effective, remote capacity-building. The initiative contributes to ongoing efforts to enhance Kenya’s health information systems in line with WHO’s global strategy on digital health and data-driven service delivery.
