Data visualisations help identify data relationships, patterns and outliers, inform decision-making and enrich presentations.

NISH supports the work of National Immunization Technical Advisory Groups (NITAGs) in the WHO Africa Region with data visualisations on vaccine-preventable diseases (VPDs) on the continent. The data sets are available for various indicators and are updated daily, allowing users to investigate and compare VPD data across particular African countries and regions and custom time ranges. Users can download custom data sets – provided as Comma Separated Values (.csv) files – for further use.

Data visualisations: VPDs in Africa is a collaboration between NISH and Open Cities Lab (OCL), set to include a range of vaccine-preventable diseases relevant to Africa in future.
