Operation Fistula - Makeover Monday

 

There is a stark disparity in not only education and wealth between the developed and undeveloped parts of the world, but also in the access to quality health services. This disparity is evident in Madagascar, Africa, where mainly young women suffer from obstetric fistulas, rendering their child births agonisingly painful, and often leading to the loss of their babies. Operation Fistula aims to stop obstetric fistulas for all women, worldwide.

 

Interpretation of Dashboard:

Young women report the most cases, shown by the skewed distribution of cases in the top chart.

Of the women (aged 15-65) who have access to a c-section when they need it, their lives are extended on average by 10.79 years.

Data Mesh - The future for data led organisations
Data Mesh - The future for data led organisations

The main obstacle with any developed data analytics function is the bottleneck of data and skillset – the more central intelligence you have, the more outer teams want to use it, so you need to find a way of allowing data and insights to flow.

If data is so complex that only your highly paid data wizards, how can make sense of it?

Here’s one methodology that we’ll discuss in detail, the Data Mesh:

  1. A decentralised data structure with domain/product teams who own the analytical and operational data:

  2. Self-serve infrastructure, data products and federated governance.

  3. A data-driven decision-making culture across the organisation.

Using data to predict movie ratings
Using data to predict movie ratings

With the Oscars just round the corner (March 12th), it seems fitting to keep on top of the latest movies and see if data can help find the diamonds in the rough!

In my previous article I looked at upcoming sequels, with a lens of which movies would come out on top. A question that kept coming back was “can we predict how non sequel movies are going to do (rating wise)?”

Where there is data, we find an answer!

There are some BIG movies on the horizon this year – some where we know the characters like old friends and others that will introduce new heroes and villains (I really don’t know what to make of the new horror Winnie the Pooh movie).

Christmas - a time to watch TV?

The Christmas break offers so much - from family reunions, beach activities to stuffing ourselves with more food than would normally be appropriate.
