INDEPTH Strategic Groups (SGs) are constituted to help the Secretariat pursue the three Strategic Objectives of INDEPTH:
-
To strengthen the capacity of INDEPTH member centres to conduct longitudinal health and demographic studies.
-
To stimulate, co-ordinate and conduct cutting-edge multicentre health and demographic research.
-
To facilitate the translation of INDEPTH findings to maximise impact on policy and practice.
We therefore have the following SGs which are anchored by the Secretariat; their leadership is determined by the Executive Director:
- INDEPTH Capacity Strengthening and Training;
- INDEPTH Data Analysis and Cause of Death;
- INDEPTH Data Management Programme (iSHARE2, INDEPTHStats, OpenHDS); and
- INDEPTH Research to Policy.
