MDTF Supported Fellows Program Steps Up in Response to COVID-19

The MDTF has supported youth inclusion in the digital economy through the development of the Digital KP strategy that outlined a series… investments and projects; organized under four pillars “Digital Access, Digital Skills, Digital Governance and Digital Economy”. An important program under the Digital Governance pillar has been the KP Government Innovation Fellowship Program, implemented in partnership with Code for Pakistan. In these challenging times due to COVID-19, this Program has helped deploy Fellows to support the Integrated Performance Management System (IPMS) for the Department of Health in KP. This system is a data collection and management platform for COVID-19 patient information in KP. Data generated from the IPMS is aimed to help guide leadership and decision making to help KP respond to COVID-19. Fellows are based at the MDTF-supported “Durshal”
