DSFP 6.0 Week 2 | Understanding Data Governance and the Role of KDBS As the learning journey continues, fellows of the 2026/2027 Click-On Kaduna Data Science Fellowship Programme are deepening their understanding of the institutions, frameworks, and practices that support effective data management and evidence-based decision-making. In this session facilitated by Hajiya Amina Lami, Head of the Project and Technical Coordination Unit at the Kaduna State Bureau of Statistics (KDBS), and co-facilitated by Usman Danjuma, Senior Planning Officer, KDBS, fellows were introduced to the Bureau’s mandate and its role in strengthening the production, management, and use of reliable statistical data. Drawing on her wealth of experience, Hajiya Amina guided fellows through the principles of effective data management, with particular attention to reviewing the KDBS Data Management and Governance Framework against standard data management practices. The session offered an opportunity to explore how clear governance structures, established processes, and consistent standards support responsible data management. For aspiring data professionals, understanding these frameworks goes beyond technical skills. It highlights the importance of data quality, accountability, consistency, and sound governance in ensuring data is trustworthy and used effectively to inform decisions. Through engagements like this, DSFP 6.0 continues to connect classroom learning with the institutional realities of data management in Kaduna State, preparing fellows to contribute to stronger data systems and better-informed decisions across sectors. #ClickOnKadunaDSFP #DataGovernance #DataManagement #Data4SocialGood #DataForImpact

DSFP 6.0 | Days Three & Four in Class! Learning continues as our fellows deepen their understanding of health data systems and how reliable evidence can strengthen primary healthcare delivery. Across these days, fellows explored the Health Facility Analytics Platform, data sources, data triangulation, data pipelines, and the DHIS2 platform, including its data elements and indicators. They also gained insights into the methodology behind independent longitudinal assessments of primary healthcare facility readiness and the importance of data quality measures. With practical knowledge of health data systems and assessment methods, DSFP 6.0 fellows are building the capacity to turn data into actionable insights to improve planning, decision-making, and health outcomes. #ClickOnKadunaDSFP #Data4SocialGood #DataForImpact
