COMSA Data System

COMSA implements an innovative electronic system for real-time data collection, review, analysis and release. Using Open Data Kit (ODK) platform on their smartphones, CSAs collect and transfer data on pregnancies, pregnancy outcomes and deaths as they occur. Verbal and Social Autopsy interviews are carried out on reported deaths using tablets loaded with ODK. Data are stored on cloud servers and are retrieved and analyzed using state of the art analysis software such as R and Stata. Estimates generated are reviewed and released for public use.

How It Works

Providing public access to real-time data creates opportunity to inform programs and policies in Mozambique.
