Conceptual Readiness for DHIS2 Adoption in Yemen’s NCD Program: SWOT, PESTEL.
In Yemen, years of conflict have weakened the health system, limiting access to essential health services and worsening the burden of NCDs. This study proposes a conceptual framework for NCD management in Yemen using the open-source District Health Information System 2 (DHIS2). The framework aims to establish an NCD database that strengthens health information systems to support evidence-based decision making. This study applies a PESTEL analysis of the external environment alongside a SWOT analysis of DHIS2 adoption to assess readiness to adopt this framework. By combining these approaches, the framework aims to close critical data gaps and mitigate NCD-related complications. The analysis results suggest that DHIS2 is a context-appropriate option for NCD programs.
