Leveraging the Health Sector to Strengthen the Civil Registration of Births and Deaths

This course is available in English and French. This 5-hour course consists of 3 main modules and covers most of the content of the guidance titled: "Health Sector Contributions Towards Improving the Civil Registration of Births and Deaths in Low-Income Countries" published by the WHO and UNICEF in 2021. The course aims to enable birth and death registration by capitalizing on the health sector's reach and service delivery. It is directed to the following two categories (1) Mid-level managers and policymakers, who have the capacity to drive positive change toward building the needed connection between the health sector and the Civil Registration and Vital Statistics (CRVS) system; (2) On-the-ground technical staff, who need specific knowledge, skills and competencies to undertake the desired change and implement the different connection potentials in practice.
