In this course, you will learn about the role and importance of civil registration and vital statistics (CRVS) systems that are used to track birth, death, and life events. Experts from around the world will explain what CRVS systems are, how they are used, the legal bases for registering vital events, and challenges experienced with CRVS systems. You will learn about how CRVS data can be used to inform population-level decision-making, including around specific methods such as medical certification of cause of death (MCCOD) and verbal autopsy, and the application of a gender and equity lens to data systems to ensure they are responsive to the needs of populations. Our overarching goals for the course are to support the collection of country-level death and birth data, to improve the use of data to inform policy priorities, track trends, and plan interventions, and enhance monitoring of major risk factors for early death, especially from noncommunicable diseases.
