Data Elevates

We're excited to contribute to this incredible opportunity to build a 21st Century workforce in Southeast Asia as part of the USAID Asia Futures Activity. Our efforts will support capacity strengthening through digital and data skill building to improve resilience and digital accessibility across the region. #digitalskills #dataforgood

Across the nonprofit landscape, there is near universal agreement that data and AI are important skills and tools to be leveraged. The case for data and AI in social impact has been sufficiently made. But who will develop those skills and leverage those tools is a different story. In this month’s LinkedIn newsletter, we feature data, use cases, and practical resources that make the case for why women must be on the leading edge of #data and #AI for impact.

The USAID Enhancing Quality of Healthcare Activity II (USAID EQHA II) is a five-year project (October 23, 2023–October 22, 2028) led by FHI 360 in partnership with the Khmer HIV/AIDS Nongovernmental Organization (NGO) Alliance (KHANA) and local partners Kawsang, ThinkWell, and Data Elevates. The project aims to further improve and sustain service quality by strengthening a harmonized Cambodian high-quality health system that will lead to better health outcomes for all Cambodians. USAID EQHA II aligns with the Ministry of Health’s (MOH) Fourth Health Strategic Plan (2023–2033) and USAID’s Vision for Health System Strengthening 2030. The project will build on the achievements of the Royal Government of Cambodia and its partners to enhance evidence-based policies, guidelines, and strategies for efficient health systems; improve individual and institutional capacity of both public and private sectors to implement, monitor, and evaluate quality assurance according to the national standards; and improve individual and institutional capacity of subnational health systems to provide quality services to address emerging national program priorities.

To accelerate social impact, we need a workforce with the skills to harness the power of?#data?and #AI. In Perry Hewitt’s latest Devex op-ed, she highlights that women and underrepresented communities offer our greatest potential, and we leave them behind at our own risk. Read the full story and learn how DataDotOrg's Generative AI Skills Challenge, supported by Microsoft and EY, clearly reinforced that meaningful progress and inclusive growth will be possible only when women are part of the solution. ?? https://lnkd.in/eZbAfkrn #DataDrivesImpact #AIDrivesImpact GIEVA.Org, Daniel Obaka, Myna Mahila Foundation, Suhani Jalota, Data Elevates, Rob Segan, Prem Durairaj, Gregory Bianchi, Anne Sawyer Shields, Lindsey Gottschalk, Joanne Jan

In partnership with the University of Houston and San Diego State University, along with Zero8Hundred and Foundation for Women Warriors, Data Elevates is thrilled to have won a National Science Foundation (NSF) Advancing Informal STEM Learning project in support of women veterans. Our project, entitled "Broadening Participation of Women Veterans in the STEM Workforce through Service Learning", builds the knowledge base regarding effective pedagogies in women veteran knowledge building, focusing on service learning. Through this research project, we will be developing the Impacting Communities Through Data (ICTD) program, training over 200 women veterans in data skills. We are excited to embark on this journey with an amazing team! Tomika W. Greer, Ph.D. Jessica Barlow Jessica Haik Ashley (Kathleen) Camac

Very excited for our team to have worked on the “Avanzando con la AI" program through development and use of a Gen AI virtual course. Thanks to DataDotOrg and Microsoft for their support, and the amazing people at CDI Chile, along with our key consultants Delmira Cristina Ravago Bastardo and Carlos Rafael Soto Nava, for their tireless effort making this program as impactful as it could be. We look forward to building on the course, and are thrilled to be featured in the Impact Report.
