MakeDeathsCount is a global health data company dedicated to improving mortality surveillance worldwide. With the alarming statistic that 50% of all deaths globally are not counted, and a staggering 90% of these uncounted deaths occurring in Low-&-Middle Income Countries, MakeDeathsCount is determined to change these numbers.

Through partnerships with Ministries of Health and NGOs, MakeDeathsCount develops mortality surveillance systems in these countries. Using their proprietary methodology, they collect Cause of Death (CoD) data from the most remote regions across the globe. They are the first and only organization in the world to do so.

The problem they are solving is significant - half of all deaths worldwide are unregistered, meaning that people are dying without their cause of death being identified, particularly in communities where access to healthcare is limited. Without this crucial data, preventable causes of death cannot be addressed effectively.

MakeDeathsCount's approach involves survey-based data collection and machine learning analysis. They provide training to their partners, enabling standardized interviews with families to identify likely causes of death. The collected data is then processed using machine learning algorithms, providing community-level insights for decision-makers to make data-driven decisions.

If you are interested in supporting their work or learning more, MakeDeathsCount welcomes you to connect with them and schedule a call. Together, we can make a difference and ensure that no deaths go unnoticed.
