In honor of World Health Day this week, we’re proud to highlight the research-driven foundation of the Data Observation Toolkit (DOT)—developed by DataKind in partnership with Medic, and recognized as a certified Digital Public Good. DOT goes beyond one-time audits or frontline-only support. It’s a modular, open-source, platform-level solution designed to strengthen data quality and trust across the entire health ecosystem. Whether used by governments, NGOs, or digital health platforms, DOT is built to be: ✅ Deployable across systems to flag problematic data or care gaps in real time ✅ Adaptable to diverse technical environments ✅ Human-centered—empowering the health workers who generate and use the data Grounded in research from 7.7M+ health encounters and shaped by community insight, DOT is already driving impact in Uganda and Lesotho. Stay tuned for more! 🔗 In the meantime, explore how data trust starts with thoughtful design: bit.ly/3DZrdQB #worldhealthday #worldhealthday2025 #datakind #digitalpublicgood #datascience #AI #opensource #dataquality #frontlinehealth #healthdata

In the US, 40% of college students drop out every year, and only 41% of students are able to graduate within four years with no interruption to their studies. Innovative solutions can make big differences in the lives of students and universities alike. At DataKind, we've started to scale our Student Success Tool nationwide, helping academic advisors identify, reach out, and build success plans with students who are in need of support more efficiently. This #educationday, learn more about how we're helping to increase graduation rates and keeping students on the learning path. 👉 https://bit.ly/3ClSNqh #datakind #datascience #AI #genAI #socialimpact #AIforGood #graduationrates #postsecondaryeducation #educationforall

Thanks to Shannon Farley, Fast Forward, and Forbes for featuring DataKind CEO Lauren Woodman! At DataKind, we believe in the power of collaboration to unlock the full potential of data science and AI for social impact. Partnering with mission-driven organizations, we tackle the most pressing challenges through innovative, scalable solutions. By designing tools that work across entire sectors, we help resource-constrained organizations maximize their impact, streamline operations, and allocate resources more effectively. Honored to be among these tech for good leaders. Take a look below! #DataKind #datascience #AI #genAI #AIforGood #TechforGood #socialimpact #innovation #leadership #womenintech
As we step into 2025, the world is asking big questions about the role of technology: Who benefits from its advancements? Who holds the power? And how can we ensure it remains a force for good? Shannon Farley’s latest for Forbes shines a light on the women answering these questions with action. In 2024, women were at the forefront of tech-for-good. From dismantling barriers to equity to wielding AI as a tool for justice, these leaders are pushing boundaries and demanding better. Rebecca Nall coded her way through chaotic laws to help 1M+ people access abortion care with ineedana.com. Nabiha Syed helped scale Mozilla’s Common Voice to over 200 languages. Marissa Ranalli Zapata’s Free Our Vote restored voting rights to 500K individuals. And that’s just the beginning. In the piece, you’ll also hear from Swapna R., Conchita Cruz, Tiffany G., Dima Saber, Lauren Woodman, and Caroline Spears.
