The Country- led system to monitor and evaluate: Case of MaliSharkhuu Munkhbat
The document summarizes the country-led system for monitoring and evaluating public policies in Mali. The key points are:
1. Mali has established a governance structure and frameworks for monitoring and evaluating its poverty reduction strategies and development policies, including sectoral and regional directorates.
2. Good practices include strong partnerships between the government, donors, and UN agencies, as well as capacity building for evaluation through a national civil society association.
3. Challenges include updating indicators, aligning donor reviews, and developing human capital for monitoring and evaluation. National leadership, coordination, and decentralized statistics are lessons learned for institutionalizing an effective system.

Day 2 panel 1 community based cause of death etea-imcha
This document summarizes two projects - the IMCHA Project in Ethiopia and a Synergy Proposal linking these efforts between Ethiopia and Mozambique. For the IMCHA Project, key objectives are to generate a national catalogue of cause of death data, pilot an integrated platform to increase quality and feasibility of cause of death surveys, and provide evidence linking causes of death to maternal and child health outcomes. For the Synergy Proposal, the objectives are to build capacity for facility-based cause of death reporting, ensure knowledge translation to health programs and vital statistics institutions, and scale efforts to other priority countries. Both projects involve training health workers, customizing data collection platforms, and engaging stakeholders to strengthen cause of death data and its use

Sectional dentures for microstomia patients.pptxSatvikaPrasad
Microstomia, characterized by an abnormally small oral aperture, presents significant challenges in prosthodontic treatment, including limited access for examination, difficulties in impression making, and challenges with prosthesis insertion and removal. To manage these issues, customized impression techniques using sectional trays and elastomeric materials are employed. Prostheses may be designed in segments or with flexible materials to facilitate handling. Minimally invasive procedures and the use of digital technologies can enhance patient comfort. Education and training for patients on prosthesis care and maintenance are crucial for compliance. Regular follow-up and a multidisciplinary approach, involving collaboration with other specialists, ensure comprehensive care and improved quality of life for microstomia patients.

Digital Health in India_Health Informatics Trained Manpower _DrDevTaneja_15.0...DrDevTaneja1
Digital India will need a big trained army of Health Informatics educated & trained manpower in India.
Presently, generalist IT manpower does most of the work in the healthcare industry in India. Academic Health Informatics education is not readily available at school & health university level or IT education institutions in India.
We look into the evolution of health informatics and its applications in the healthcare industry.
HIMMS TIGER resources are available to assist Health Informatics education.
Indian Health universities, IT Education institutions, and the healthcare industry must proactively collaborate to start health informatics courses on a big scale. An advocacy push from various stakeholders is also needed for this goal.
Health informatics has huge employment potential and provides a big business opportunity for the healthcare industry. A big pool of trained health informatics manpower can lead to product & service innovations on a global scale in India.

5. WHO register of non-State actors
• An electronic Global Engagement Management Tool, allowing WHO to better manage
its engagements (non-State actors, coordinated resource mobilization, individual
experts)
• WHO register of non-State actors as part of this Tool
• Prototype includes data from most of the 70 NGOs under review of official relations
(but does not yet include engagements):
http://www.who.int/about/who_reform/non-state-actors/register
• WHO provides annual report to the governing bodies on its engagement with
non-State actors
6. Key WHA-mandated milestones of
implementation

7. In the meantime, how will
the Regional Office work
• FENSA policies apply immediately, procedures are
under preparation to facilitate the implementation
• Guide for staff and handbook for non-State actors to
clarify details of engagement and FENSA application
• PAR is Regional Office’s specialized unit for FENSA
