"I'm so proud of the work we did with DataKind and their incredible volunteers. Our work stands out as one of the only research projects I’ve seen that wrestles with highly technical issues to find real world solutions grounded in public policy, economic forces, and community needs at a granular and actionable level. This is certainly not a one-off project. It is now my commitment to continue this great work and drive some serious impact."
— Danielle Getsinger, PG, MBA, Cofounder and CEO
"This project was timely and relevant—building confidence in the data we generate is critical for every single Medic Mobile deployment...It’s also incredible to witness how the DataKind and Medic teams worked alongside some very talented volunteers on this project—this is exactly the kind of collaboration that we hope for open source communities to enable.”
