The Immunization Plus and Malaria Progress by Accelerating Coverage and Transmission Services, IMPACT, project in Plateau State recently held a digitalization workshop aimed at transforming health care data reporting at primary health care facilities across the state.

The workshop which took place on Friday November 8, 2024 in Jos, marks a significant step toward modernizing health data system in Nigeria.

Speaking during a workshop training, Project Manager of IMPACT, Nurse Kizito Ndak says IMPACT is a World Bank project with four components: The Malaria component, Immunization component, Knowledge for change and Emergency Response component.

He says through the aid of the State Governor Barrister Caleb Manasseh Mutfwang, Plateau State is currently working on the Immunization component which aims to reduce maternal mortality and children under 5 death mortality ratios by improving the knowledge gap of people working in primary health care centers.
