Sarah Dwyer & Carol Bales | GlobalHealthTalk | November 7, 2011

Kayode Odusote talks about how he's helping West African countries with their health workforce information systems, and why using open source software is vital to success. Proprietary solutions just do not work well for these countries that are resource constrained. The video taped interview is available on You Tube's GlobalHealthTalk Channel.
