Abstract/Description
Administrative Data (AD) are a key component of nutrition data systems, but little is known about how AD are used or can be reshaped for accountability and action. We studied factors influencing AD use in India's Integrated Child Development Services (ICDS), in two Indian states; and assessed how an m-Health intervention (Common Application Software (CAS)) changes it. ICDS-AD system consolidates data from 11-recording registers updated every month by ∼1.3 million frontline workers (FLW). CAS digitizes these records and creates dashboards for real-time monitoring.
