The DHIS2 Online Academy has grown into a truly global learning platform, with more than 27,000 learners from 178 countries and over 88,000 course enrollments. Through our new “Learner Voices” series, we’re celebrating this global community by sharing stories from some of our most active Online Academy participants.
In interviews with our team, five learners reflect on their experiences—from charting their own learning paths and growing their careers to building capacity, expanding learning, and creating impact across sectors such as health, education, climate, and logistics.
Explore the videos and read the full interview transcripts below to hear directly from learners about how DHIS2 education is helping them make a difference—and inspiring others to do the same.
