Action Research
DHIS2-Ed is developed through a research project at the University of Oslo Department of Informatics. The lab coordinates research designs, data collection, and iterative action research with the HISP network and health ministries.
The fastest-growing EMIS in Africa
DHIS2-Ed is a free and open-source education management information system (EMIS), powered by the DHIS2 software, that helps users collect, analyze, visualize, and use data from educational institutions to help countries track and measure progress towards education goals.
DHIS2-Ed brings your education data to life
DHIS2 is an open-source, license-free data management platform developed by the HISP Centre at the University of Oslo (HISP UiO), and is freely available as a Digital Public Good. DHIS2 is the result of 30+ years of participatory design with stakeholders in the Global South, and is actively supported by the global HISP network. More than 80 countries worldwide use DHIS2 for collecting and analyzing health data, and DHIS2-Ed extends the platform from the health sector to the education sector—enabling the collection, analysis, visualization, and use of individual and aggregate data from institutions of learning.
