Project poster

The Gates Foundation partnered with ESPEN to create an open access data portal for the purpose of empowering Ministries of Health and other partners with the information necessary to drive efficient investments for neglected tropical disease treatment. This project aims to address low utilization of the ESPEN portal through the development of new metrics and dashboards that health officials can derive actionable insights from. By leveraging publicly available data from ESPEN and consolidating many relevant data points, we have provided tools for health officials to more effectively identify and act upon points of concern in drug procurement and administration.
