PLEASE VOTE FOR THE IDEA THAT WILL HELP TO IMPROVE THE HEALTH SECTOR IN TANZANIA

My name is Jumanne Mtambalike, am working with the TANZICT Project under the commission of science and technology Tanzania (COSTECH). We have submitted an idea to the global competition called “Making all voices count”, the competition is aiming at promoting transparency, access to information, good governance, citizen engagement and asset disclosure.

My idea is to have a platform that can help to improve the health sector by involving all the stakeholders in a more transparent way. The platform is called AfyaMap, AfyaMap will allow users to write reviews and comment on different health initiatives in Tanzania, from the quality of services offered by the health centers and usage of available resources such as medicines and other utilities. Individuals will have an opportunity to report directly to the authorities and to the public about possible misconducts and abuse of available resources this will help the authorities to take actions to improve the services offered and hold responsible personnel accountable for their actions.

The project will also help donors and health projects sponsors to have a real time track of the usage of their funds and get real time feedback from targeted community if the funds they are releasing they meet the required purpose. The project will also help the government to understand the area of focus on improving the quality of health services and implementing new strategies to improve those areas by working with the people directly.

Please we are requesting you to read and vote for the idea by following this link “http://ideas.makingallvoicescount.org/a/dtd/AfyaMap/18444-26650” and click I agree and only after logging in you will be allowed to vote.  Please vote and spread the word for more votes, we depend so much to our fellow Tanzanians and social reformers from anywhere in the word. Please help to improve our health sector by supporting us.  For more information about the competition or about us, you can email jumanne@tanzict.or.tz or call +255716217621. Thanks in advance.
