Project Background
Data-Activated Architecture for Resilient Transition (DART) supports the Ministry of Health (MOH) to strengthen and scale interoperable, fit-for-purpose digital health systems. The project supports facility digitization and EMR readiness; National Data Warehouse (NDWH) stabilization; data-center design and cybersecurity; Health Information Exchange (HIE) operations and priority integrations; workforce certification; survey modernization; responsible AI adoption; and service-delivery data reporting performance. The project is designed to build on MOH-owned systems, repositories, standards, and governance structures, with progressive transfer of capability to government and Ugandan institutions. Project period is anticipated 2026–2030, beginning with a six-month foundation phase.
