This interactive discussion will be led by Professor Kayode Odusote, CEO of the Foundation for Sustainable Health Development and former director of human resources for health for the West African Health Organization. Odusote will share successes and lessons learned from his work to foster full country leadership and ownership of health workforce information systems in West Africa. CapacityPlus’s Dykki Settle will present an overview of the open source iHRIS software, developed by IntraHealth International through the USAID-funded Capacity Project and CapacityPlus. iHRIS, which has been implemented in more than 10 countries, helps ensure that the right health worker is in the right place with the right skills by providing current, accurate data on human resources for health.
