The document summarizes efforts to strengthen health management information systems (HMIS) in Cote d'Ivoire by integrating HIV/AIDS data. An evaluation found inadequate equipment, insufficiently trained staff, and a lack of standardized collection tools and data quality. In response, strategies were developed to build technical capacity through new data collection tools and software, and to build organizational capacity through equipment, training, and resource mobilization. Standardized paper-based and computerized databases were implemented. Over 300 people were trained, and partnerships and funding were improved. Lessons indicated organizational strengthening and training on data quality and use are important for sustainability.
