A need to establish a unified DM strategy as a long term goal


Dear Data management fellows

I hope you are doing fine since we last communicated. It is now three months since our first KSS and I believe now we have a lot to start blogging

One of the major action and the way forward after the KSS was to “establish a unified DM strategy as a long term goal”

 What are the primary components of your data management strategy will be?

I think if we can start our conversation on this and come up with the draft document compiling the list of primary components of data management in our centres we can then look the possibilities to have a session during the AJSC next year to agree on the primary components for DM which will stand for our institution.

Understanding of researchers about the importance of centralized data management system




Thank you to all for attending the first NIMR Mwanza Knowledge Sharing Seminar (KSS). 

It was great to have you as a data management unit representative for your centre.

One of the big challenges addressed during the seminar was about little understanding of researchers about the importance of centralized data management system. What are your opinions about the action to be taken on improving the situation in our Centres and within institution in general?
