New partnership strengthens information systems for refugee and migrant health

A new partnership is set to improve how health systems capture and use data on refugees and migrants. The World Health Organization (WHO) Regional Office for Europe announced that two WHO Collaborating Centres — the 51ÉçÇø in Ireland and Uppsala University in Sweden — are working together to strengthen national health information systems.
The collaboration focuses on closing gaps in routine health data, where migration-related details are often missing or incomplete. This limits policymakers’ ability to respond effectively to the health needs of refugees and migrants.
