TOR – Data visualisation specialist for the ‘My Data, Our Health’ Campaign Dashboard Integration

Background:

In January 2023, Transform Health launched the My Data Our Health campaign to raise awareness and galvanise action on the issue of health data governance, and to encourage a public and political conversation.

At the heart of this campaign is the question of trust, between patients and those collecting and using our health data, and in the government to ensure rules are clear and all are protected – now and in the future. 

The My Data Our Health campaign supports Transform Health’s broader objectives of ensuring stronger health governance at all levels by pushing governments to endorse a global framework on health data governance to inform national regulation. The coalition is pushing for this framework to be underpinned by the Health Data Governance Principles (HDGP), to contain core elements for health data governance regulation, and a draft model law and regulation that countries can draw on and domesticate into national legislation. 

To raise people’s awareness of health data governance we have developed the Where’sMyData? campaign action. This simple action invites people to go to their health provider and request their electronic health data. This action has created a digital movement around the campaign and has provided people with first hand experience and awareness of how their data is being managed, used, shared, stored and disposed of. It has also generated important and valuable information for the campaign that has been used to position the issue with the media and politicians. 

So far over 500 people have taken part in this action and their experiences have been captured in an online survey. Transform Health would like to create a dashboard to display this information in an anonymised and visually compelling manner to be attractive to the media and to politicians, whom we hope will use this information to gain insights into people’s lived experiences of interacting with the health system at the local level and accessing their personal health data.  

Transform Health is seeking a contractor (individual or organisation) that can support us achieve the following objectives:

  • Develop a dashboard to visualise, in an anonymised manner, the data collected from the Where’sMyData? Campaign

  • Collaborate with the website’s development team for seamless dashboard integration.
  • Iterate based on feedback and ensure that the dashboard is user-friendly and interactive, allowing people to filter the data through different fields to gain a visual understanding of the nature of the challenges of accessing data across different contexts.
  • Create a guidance document to allow backend updates using wordpress admin dashboard
  • Deliver final design files and any necessary documentation.
