Strengths/ Better Practice in HIS ownership and leadership - Already existing multi sectoral group including donors and partners, with a strategic plan that is already in place but needs reinforcing in implementation. - Systems are in placed but parallel. There is a readiness to explore interoperability. - Human capital development – there are ICT programs in different Universities but no formal health informatics program.

Priority gaps in HIS ownership and leadership - Inconsistency in terms of representatives attending meetings. No concrete roles for each group, more on information sharing as supposed to action plans. Issues on political will and commitment. - Presence of different vertical data programs. - Retention and capacity building – problems in public sector job opportunity/ private sector offer higher salary.
