From Cepei, we hope that, through this research, public-private data partnerships will improve their potential to respond to the global context.
This Executive Summary provides insights into the partnership between several private providers of spatial data and Vihiga County Government in Kenya in establishing public-private initiatives. It was prepared by Muchiri Nyaggah at LDRI.
In Vihiga, Kania, officials use spatial data to make decisions. In a constituency called Emuhaya, a geospatial information systems (GIS) lab has been providing data and testing to the government for years.
Vihiga’s GIS laboratory was instrumental in developing a policy to improve maternal healthcare outreach in Emuhaya constituency.
Vihiga’s GIS Lab demonstrates the feasibility of a public-private data initiative model that can support sustainable development actions at the local level.
