Twitter seems to deal a lot with facts, as if they are fixed already. I would have more to share if I could share plans, ideas and speculations.

We will set up a formal SAPRIN Twitter account, vetted and official, and then Kobus and I can independently add comments/reflections. SAPRIN requires establishing a great HDSS standard model, which is interesting. Residence and migration surveillance on our minds at the moment.

Today is Wits School of Public Health Lekgotla. My SAPRIN input: the nature of national research infrastructures = accessibility, harmonised data, and being national. Associated training at universities = multicentre event history analysis and triangulation with national data.

SA is preparing for the @ICPD25 Nairobi Summit. There is a stakeholder consultation this afternoon. I am going to raise the value of HDSS data for evaluating national statistics & reporting labour migration as a subset of migration flows. Text me if you want me to raise an issue.
