Every year we bring the global DHIS2 community together for a week of presentations, discussions, and networking opportunities

Overview
The DHIS2 Annual Conference is our biggest yearly event, and provides an opportunity for the global DHIS2 community — a diverse group including implementers, developers, ministry representatives, technical partners, donors, and other DHIS2 experts from around the world — to meet and share experiences with DHIS2, learn about the latest developments and innovations, and make connections that can lead to new partnerships and collaborations.
To get the most out of the Annual Conference, it is best to join us in person. But because we recognize that not everyone can make the trip to Oslo, we our conference in a hybrid format, allowing online participants to join sessions live, share questions and comments on the DHIS2 Community of Practice, or watch recordings on the DHIS2 YouTube channel.
Previously known as the DHIS2 Experts Academy, the Annual Conference typically takes place in June at the University of Oslo in Norway, home of the HISP Centre, which develops and maintains the DHIS2 platform. The event includes a full week of use cases, thematic presentations, live demos, and opportunities for networking and consultation with DHIS2 experts.
