Of note is that the TRACT xls program will be included in the WHO compendium outlined below and is currently available for download at the website below: Re. Treatment Response Application for Client Tracking (TRACT) www.internationalgme.org In reference to the WHO Call for innovative technologies that address global health concerns I would like to invite you to contribute updated information regarding the technology you submitted one year ago. WHO would like to include your submission in a compendium of innovative health technologies to be published on the WHO website, and as part of a DVD containing comprehensive information on the WHO Global Initiative on Health Technologies, in March 2011. The compendium's purpose is to further the dissemination of health technologies for global health concerns. Following the Call, 15 technologies were selected and presented on the WHO website. The outcome and selection process of the Call were also shared with the relevant stakeholders in a more recent publication. Although only 15 were selected, many of the 86 submissions demonstrated the potential for clear health benefits and the Department of Essential Health Technologies would therefore like to include them in the compendium. Technologies will be presented in a one page fact sheet similar to the sample page attached to this email. The intended readers of the publication are ministries of health, procurement officers, donors, technology developers, manufacturers, clinicians, academics and the general public.
