As Africa’s second-most populous nation, Ethiopia is driving major transformations in healthcare delivery, urban mobility, and environmental regulation. Ethiopia is driving historic transformations in healthcare delivery, urban mobility, and environmental safety. However, sustainable development requires robust data to track progress and identify vulnerabilities. Vital Strategies strengthens national ownership by converting fragmented administrative records into standardized, highly reliable public health data networks that save lives, inform policies, and foster long-term health equity. We build long-term, demand-driven capacity within federal and regional ministries to ensure that public investments are guided by high-quality local evidence.
