Since 2006, regional/provincial health officers in every country of sub-Saharan Africa continue to be trained in the use of EpiSurveyor mobile electronic data collection software. The officers are using EpiSurveyor for the collection of information regarding clinic supervision, as well as any other data need that arises: vaccination coverage, outbreak response, etc.

Countries already trained and using EpiSurveyor include Kenya, Zambia, Ghana, Uganda, Cameroon, Senegal, and Sierra Leone.

DataDyne co-founder Rose Donna will be supervising fieldwork in Sierra Leone designed to measure the effectiveness of the recent vaccination and ITN distribution campaign.
