Our Resource Library provides access to curated resources related to CRVS systems, including research, tools, publications, CRVS eLearning course, our Expert Talks video series, and a glossary of terms and definitions.
A CRVS system is one that connects relevant data from the civil registry and the health information system for the purpose of producing vital statistics. In order to function well, CRVS systems depend on common elements. These are featured under a unique section of our library. Examples include resources that focus on training, assessments and evaluations, identity management, data security and privacy, information and communications technology, and more.
