The main goal of this project is to use data, data analytics, and data science to ensure OGOW Health and its partners deepen impact, continuously learn, improve, build, and communicate compelling evidence of strengthened community health systems, high-impact community health practices, and ultimately improved health outcomes. This will involve several different steps for the students, including:

- Analyzing existing datasets of health systems, practices, and outcomes.

- Developing data analytics and data science models to identify areas of improvement.

- Optimizing models for accuracy and performance.

- Researching additional data sources and variables that can improve the models.

- Accounting for additional variables in the models.

- Testing the models and making improvements based on additional data.

By the end of the project, students should demonstrate:

- Understanding of existing datasets of health systems, practices, and outcomes.

- Understanding of variables that affect the quality of the models.

- Identification of areas for future improvement of the models.

Bonus steps would include:

- Testing the models with real-world data and accounting for additional parameters.

Final deliverables should include:

- All source code.

- A written report explaining the design process and outcomes.
