DHIS2 is an open source, web-based platform for data collection, visualization, analysis, sharing, and management of both aggregate and individual-level data, including mobile and offline data collection using the DHIS2 Android app. DHIS2 is most commonly used as a Health Management Information System (HMIS), but it is also increasingly used in related domains such as health logistics and supply chain management. In many countries, the organizational unit hierarchy in DHIS2 serves as the de facto Master Facility List. DHIS2 is designed for interoperability and is commonly integrated with other software and data sources, allowing it to serve as a data warehouse and platform for triangulation and cross-program data analysis. The core DHIS2 software development is managed by the HISP Centre at the University of Oslo, which also coordinates a global network of 17 in-country and regional HISP groups that provide long-term direct support and capacity building to ministries of health and local implementers of DHIS2.

Health workers at facility and community levels, supervisors, program managers and district health officers, national-level stakeholders, administrators, and ministries of health.

DHIS2 is used in more than 100 countries, including as national-scale, country-owned health information systems in 69 low- and middle-income countries. In total, 3.2 billion people live in countries where DHIS2 is used for public health programs.
