Humanitarian OSM Team/HOT Microgrants/Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Summit Grant 2020/Proposal/Mapping Health Facilities in Lubumbashi and Kampemba
Your project
This is an opportunity for you to tell us about your project. In this section we'd like to hear about your community, which local challenge your project addresses, what you plan to do and how, your sustainability plan, and how you plan to share your stories.
Describe the local challenge your project is addressing
In this section please describe in detail the challenge that your project addresses. We recommend your response be a minimum of 200 words and a maximum of 400 words.
Our city suffers from the problem of accessibility of product delivery, the effective inventory of health infrastructure. We do not have knowledge of the health areas in which we are or of all the existing health structures. To make this information accessible to intervention agencies, it is necessary to provide data on health infrastructures and their areas.This information will contain the capacities of the infrastructures.
Covering the whole city will be difficult, which is why we have limited to mapping the health areas in 2 large municipalities. There is no clear limit to health areas. As a contributor, we will define these limits of the areas and the health infrastructures that contain them for this fact we must compare the data collected in the field and those mapped online on openstreetmap.
These data will be directly accessible online. A large effort will be made for the spatial management of private public health structures in the targeted municipalities, particularly that of Lubumbashi and that of Kamalondo. So we will open a map that can continue over time with other contributors. This data will be updated from time to time as needed or even extended to other municipalities in the city. We will provide and call the method of mapping health areas and make it available to local contributors.
Describe your project
In this section, please provide specific details about your mapping objectives. This should include: how you will contribute to help solve the local challenge you are addressing, what you aim to achieve with funding, what volume of mapping you plan to complete and how, and the number individuals are you aiming to include in mapping activities. We recommend your response be a minimum of 200 words and a maximum of 400 words.
The project aims to carry out mapping of health areas. Health infrastructures and their area. In fact, to help future health interventions by different organizations, we must have for our city of Lubumbashi a complete mapping of health areas. describe their accessibility and extent, in order to facilitate the transport of either health products or patients to the nearest areas.
We are targeting two large municipalities in the city of Lubumbashi with the allocated budget, we will be able to cover the two municipalities namely Lubumbashi and Kampemba. A team of 5 people will suffice to cover the two municipalities. It will be easy to integrate the data collected concerning the infrastructures with kobo integrated in the smartphones for the information concerning the carrying capacity. And the boundaries of the health areas that will be provided to the provincial ministries of health in Haut Katanga will be carried out in the field with a pocket GPS.
For online mapping, training will be given to id editor and JOSM for the less experienced and for the more experienced for three days. JOSM will also be able to help in the validation step of the mapped data. Other contributors can join online for the mapping of health facilities.
Describe your sustainability plan
In this section please describe how your activities will continue post-funding. If you are applying for funding to purchase equipment, explain who will store/use the equipment you purchase, and if you have long term sustainability plans for your community's development. We recommend your response be a minimum of 200 words and a maximum of 400 words.
After the project, the method will already be fixed. As we are integrated within the geography department at the University of Lubumbashi, the CarTeS laboratory will be in charge of perpetuating the field trips until the complete realization of the whole city thanks to fieldwork with students from the Faculty of Science for cartography and GIS courses, if the means allow, we will extend this cartography to peri-urban areas, so training will be continuous and other members can join from the area academic or partners.
The material acquired will be kept by the CarTeS / Lubumbashi laboratory in the geography department. As we are a research laboratory, we will be open to any other OSM project based in the city of Lubumbashi to provide the material in case of needs of different projects. The information concerning CarTeS is available and known since CarTeS participated in the Missing map project, MSF in Lubumbashi with JORIEKE and Claire HALLEUX.
Thanks to these materials, we will also ensure that the boundary data is updated if there are any changes in the administrative structures of the city of Lubumbashi or of urban development in the city of Lubumbashi.
What are your community defined project goals, and how do you define project success?
Please explain you project goals. This can include: setting goals such as "we will train X number of new mappers", "we will register as a legal entity", or "the data will be used by X", and why these goals are important to your community such as "we intent to be legally registered so that we can receive more grant funding in the future", "we intend to engage X number of women in mapping activities so that we can empower local women" or "we want to build a partnership with X so that our data will be used and trusted". We recommend your response be a minimum of 200 words and a maximum of 400 words.
What are your community's long term goals?
Please give describe your community's vision. This can include: where you see your community in five years time, how you want your data to be used, future partnerships you'd like to establish, or how you would like your community to grow (or not!). We recommend your response be a minimum of 200 words and a maximum of 400 words.
List the tools you intend to use during your project and why
Please describe which tools you plan to use to collect, update, clean, or store you data and why. For example: "we plan to use HOT's Tasking Manager to coordinate volunteers" or "we will upload our data to X platform because..." We recommend your response be a minimum of 200 words and a maximum of 400 words.
Please give examples of how you will use share your stories with others. This can include: how you will publicise your news, where you will collect media content, how you will use social media channels, and if you will reach out beyond your immediate network to share your stories. We recommend your response be a minimum of 200 words and a maximum of 400 words.
By creating an account on Twitter, WhatsApp, or Facebook, this will allow others to read us to know the achievements but also the evolution of the project. Based on the project plan, we will start posting information about the project.
Partnerships
Successful applications will demonstrate one or more partnerships with a local data user. Priority will be given to applications for which the data has been requested by a partnering organisation, or where the partner organisation has expressed interest in collecting the data for a specific use or intervention. Example partners include local non-government organisations (NGOs), community based organisations (CBOs), local governments, companies, universities, schools, and other academic institutions.
Describe who will use your data
It is important that the data you generate during the project is useful, and that it will be used to advance humanitarian and/or development challenges locally. In this section, please include: if the data you will be collecting has been requested by a partnering organisation, if there is an established formal relationship with the partnering organisation, if there is an existing MoU between you and the partnering organisation, and how long have you been working with the partnering organisation. If your organisation or community is going to be the data user, please describe how you will use the data, and how it ties in with your organisation's work. We recommend your response be a minimum of 200 words and a maximum of 400 words.
The data will be made available to all users of health data, nationals or foreigners who wish to access care in their health zones or organizations which wish to transport health products to different health zones, the provincial ministry health, MSF.
No organization placed the order. this is done by our own initiatives in view of the needs of the population and organizations.
Describe any other partnerships you plan to mobilise or establish for the purpose of the project
In this section, please describe any additional partners you might be working with. If there are no additional partners (beyond the data user) this must be stated here. We recommend your response be a minimum of 200 words and a maximum of 400 words.
The Haut Katanga provincial health ministry will help us define the boundaries of the health areas. MSF can also help with this project since it is also a major user of health data.
Inclusivity
Successful applications will include a developed strategy for the inclusion of women, girls, and marginalised groups in mapping activities. This includes the number of women, girls or marginalised groups you plan to engage, and the way in which you plan to interact with them.
