Join CanWaCH for a weekly series of data-focused events to mark World Sexual Health Day and Gender Equality Week 2024!

Curated Conversations: Leveraging Data to Inform Programming

CanWaCH is committed to creating an environment for practitioners to gather, discuss challenges, share best practices, and exchange knowledge. To further promote this, our curated conversations will provide a dedicated open space for participants to engage in dialogue, share projects and ask questions.

Each conversation will start with a short discussion between experts in the sector. They will set the context by identifying gaps and challenges in data collection on a specific thematic area, and opportunities to better leverage data to inform programming. Participants will then move to breakout rooms to engage in deeper discussions, which will be facilitated by the speakers.

Please note that you have to register for each event individually.

September 25 from 11 am to 12:00 pm ET
