The Case of TB Dashboard for Southern African Development Community(SADC)
The Southern African Development Community (SADC) is a regional organization of 16 southern African countries that promotes economic cooperation and integration. Among other things, the community is advocating for the adoption of universal health coverage to combat epidemic diseases such as TB and HIV/AIDS. To monitor adherence to regional and global commitments, SADC developed a 2020-2024 SADC Regional Strategic Plan and Declaration on TB, M&E Framework, which mandated countries to report TB data. Consequently, countries used to report manually using an Excel tool, making it challenging to monitor indicators and make timely decisions. This necessitated the establishment of a regional data repository and dashboard for TB, TB/HIV, and other occupational lung diseases, where data can be submitted electronically.
