Tóm tắt :

Evidence-informed policy-making is essential for achieving the SDGs and other health-related goals. Governments and decision-makers at all levels need reliable and timely information for the formulation and implementation of effective and relevant policies and programmes to secure the health and well-being of their peoples. Limited and/or fragmented data makes it challenging for decision-makers to identify and prioritize the health and socioeconomic issues and problems, allocate resources effectively, track progress, evaluate intervention outcomes, and make evidence-based decisions regarding policy and programme design.Health information systems (HIS) are a key edifice of robust health systems, and are central to the collection, compilation and analysis of health data essential for population health and well being. HIS support the monitoring and improvement of health-care quality and systems performance, as well as the fostering of research and innovation for better outcomes. An enabling environment for robust HIS is critical to ensure effective use of health data for policy-making and public health actions. Countries in the Region are investing in strengthening their HIS capacities, coverage and performance tracking. Integrated health information platforms at all levels should be designed to leverage emerging and innovative technologies, cross-sectoral partnerships, and data analytics that can improve HIS performance, including public health surveillance to promote evidence-informed policies. The integrated platforms can build on experiences and best practices of well-established data and knowledge-sharing platforms. This encompasses strategic investment, robust data architecture, strong data-sharing policies and data governance mechanisms.This Agenda item was proposed by the Directorate-General of Health Services of the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, Government of the People’s Republic of Bangladesh, through a letter dated 14 September 2023 to the Chair of the Working Group for identification of the Regional Resolutions and Decisions of the Seventy-Sixth Session of the WHO Regional Committee of South-East Asia.This Working Paper is envisaged to support Member State deliberations on promoting evidence-driven policy-making and the creating or bolstering shared integrated platforms that can support and enable Member States in using data for policy-making, improving transparency, accountability, adaptability and risk assessments, and making rational, equitable and efficient resource allocations.The overarching objective is to leverage the wealth of information generated by governments, businesses and individuals at national and subnational levels, and also harness the power of responsible machine-learning and artificial intelligence to drive decision-making processes at all levels of the health system. This Working Paper is being presented to the Seventy sixth Session of the Regional Committee for its consideration, seeking its views and recommendations.
