In a district in one of our projects, over half of facilities were over-reporting Vitamin A Supplementation coverage. Data accuracy stood at 36%. Meanwhile, only 44% of eligible children were actually receiving both required doses.

The national figures said one thing, while the verified records said another.

By introducing individual-level verification, health teams gained a clearer picture of which children were actually receiving services and which were not. It's hard to close a coverage gap that's invisible.

We are thrilled to share that Simprints has been honored with a 2026 Global Recognition Award for Innovation! 🏆🌍

With over 15,000 applicants globally, we are proud to see our team’s hard work recognised at this scale.

Most biometric identity technology is built for stable, high-infrastructure environments. At Simprints, we have designed our technology to specifically work in the last-mile context—in remote clinics and fragile health systems—and for populations where previous technologies have failed to reach those in need.

By building an inclusive, privacy-first, and offline-ready system, we are proving that innovative technologies can be directed toward global health equity.

This recognition belongs to our team, our global partners, and the frontline health workers who use our tools daily to ensure that life-saving services reach the people who need them most.

Thank you to the Global Recognition Awards panel for highlighting the power of ethical, inclusive technology.

In 2025, Simprints' partners confirmed more than 1.1 million services across Ghana, Ethiopia, and Uganda.

323,041 children vaccinated.
22,313 people's eyesight restored through trachoma surgery.
692,953 patients treated for deworming.

Each service was linked to a verified individual at the point of care, helping health workers gain a clearer picture of who has been reached, and who is still being missed.

Digital health tools fail when they ignore reality on the ground. A new tech layer shouldn't become 'decoration' that only complicates the job of a health worker.

To us, ethical design means sitting in the clinic from day one. It means running user surveys and workflow shadowing to see if our digital ID solution reduces a health worker's burden or adds to it.

Our technology solution is only as good as the system it plugs into. As we support our partners steadily move from paper to digital records, our focus is on building practical bridges that fit existing clinic routines.

But it’s also about the data itself. The latest ICTworks piece asks a critical question: Does the system make invisible patients visible?

Patients who move between facilities or miss follow-ups are invisible in fragmented record systems. If you train an AI on those records, it simply inherits the gaps. We need tools that identify these data inaccuracies and reduce the gaps.

Ethical design starts by asking the right foundational questions. The full piece breaks these down for every digital health AI solution.

Next week, Bastien Micheau, Engineering Manager, will represent Simprints and present at this year’s @dhis_2 Annual Conference and Climate and Health Academy at the University of Oslo in Norway.

The conference brings together @dhis_2 implementers, developers, government representatives, technical partners, donors, and other @dhis_2 experts from around the world to share experiences, learn about the latest developments and innovations, and make connections that can lead to new partnerships and collaborations.

On Monday 15th, Bastien will present at the Extensibility and Interoperability Features session, showing how Simprints leverage new features in @dhis_2 to integrate our biometrics Digital ID solution better.

If you're around at @dhis_2 next week and would like to connect, please reach out to Bastien on LinkedIn or at bastien@simprints.com – he'd love to chat!
