Development Gateway (DG) has partnered with the Centre for the Study of the Economies of Africa (CSEA) for the second phase of the Tobacco Control Data Initiative (TCDI). TCDI 2.0 aims to advance the work achieved in TCDI 1.0, which focused on improving tobacco control policies by providing governments, civil society, and academia of six African countries with country-specific data. To strengthen this partnership, Development Gateway organised a kick-off workshop in Lagos Nigeria. The purpose of this workshop was for both teams to streamline their understanding and expectations of the program as well as provide some capacity building on the processes used in the first phase of the program, which will also be used on TCDI 2.0. Development Gateway (DG): An IREX venture creates tools and design processes that help collect, visualize, and use data for a more equitable world. DG bridges the gap in data use and availability to support stronger decision-making. Learn more about DG and CSEA partnership https://cseaafrica.org/development-ga...
