Presenting data effectively is crucial for decision making. In public health, data arrive from multiple geographical locations and from multiple sources (labs, hospitals, health facilities, etc.). The ability to present such data by using effective charts is needed for creating reports and presentations that highlight the information.

I instructed a half-day hands-on session on Effective Data Presentation, as part of a week-long workshop on public health surveillance, organized by the Australian AID at the Royal Institute of Health Sciences in Thimphu. Participants were the first batch of newly graduated public health students.
