Hello DHIS2 Community,
The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) has developed an Event Report Widget that addresses a common workflow challenge: accessing individual event details from dashboard views.
The Problem We Solved
Key Features :
- Dashboard Integration: Embeds event reports directly in DHIS2 dashboards
- Direct Navigation: One-click access to events in Tracker Capture or Event Capture
- Search and Filtering: Real-time search across event data with column-specific filters
- Customizable Views: Configure visible columns and settings per dashboard
- Automatic App Detection: Routes to appropriate capture application based on program type
Built for the Community
- DHIS2-Native: Uses official APIs and follows DHIS2 design patterns
- Role-Based Security: Respects existing user permissions and authorities
- Flexible Configuration: Works with any event program - no custom development needed
- Mobile Friendly: Responsive design works on tablets and mobile devices

The demonstration shows:
- Configuration: How to select and configure event reports for dashboards and customize display for different team needs
- User Experience: Viewing event data directly in dashboards, finding specific events with search and filters, and one-click access to event details in Tracker/Capture
- Implementation Benefits: How the widget improves field operations and real-world usage in ICRC humanitarian programs
Key Highlight: Watch how we go from dashboard to event details in just 1 click instead of the traditional 5-8 click workflow!
What’s Next?
We’re planning exciting enhancements:
- Multi-widget dashboard support
- Advanced date range filtering
- Offline capabilities for low-connectivity areas
- Custom visualization options
