💻 Big shout-out to UVA’s Research Computing team! 🙌 With support from the Data Analytics Center and Ivy Secure Environment, Plan-EO built the data infrastructure powering our geospatial dashboard ☁️🗺️. 🔗 Learn more: www.rc.virginia.edu/project/plan... #PlanEO #UVA #Episky #GlobalHealth #DataScience
The Plan-EO Initiative
@planeoproject.bsky.social
We combine climate, health, and big data to map childhood diarrhea risks and support local solutions in low- and middle-income countries. Turning data into action so no child dies from preventable disease. Our website: https://www.planeo.earth/dashboard
🌍 Plan-EO makes all its data open and accessible! 💡📊 Our paper in PLOS Global Public Health maps where homes in low and middle-income countries are more likely to have covered floors, a key factor in child health 🏠🦠 📄 Read: journals.plos.org/globalpublic... #OpenData #GlobalHealth #PlanEO #Episky
Kicking off our #TeamSpotlight 🌍 Meet Hannah, former #PlanEO intern ➡️ now Knowledge Management Specialist! A #UVA med student, she’s driven by #GlobalHealth equity & supported our review on disease risk in rural life. Her work fuels #SPRINGSProject goals 🚀 #HealthEquity #PublicHealth #Episky
📝 New blog up on @defeatdd.bsky.social Hundreds of thousands of kids die from diarrheal disease each year—yet it’s preventable. In our new Q&A, Plan-EO members share how big data is helping change that. @jmcolston.bsky.social 👉 defeatdd.org/blog/plan-eo... #DefeatDD #PlanEO #GlobalHealth #Episky
How Plan-EO is using big data to tackle diarrheal disease
The Plan-EO team's dashboard brings together huge amounts of big data to track and predict where diarrhea-causing pathogens are.

🌏🌟 Earlier this month Plan-EO coordinator Josh Colston, traveled to Japan 🎌 to present the project at the Awaji International Forum on Infection & Immunity. He was impressed by the science and the spirit of collaboration. @jmcolston.bsky.social #PlanEO #GlobalHealth #epiSky
💧 In 2019, unsafe WASH caused over 1M child deaths, including 69% of diarrheal deaths worldwide according to @who.int. @planeoproject.bsky.social is building a dashboard under @jmcolston.bsky.social leadership linking climate + child health to guide solutions. #EpiSky #GlobalHealth #Plan-EO
👀 Coming soon: Plan-EO’s child health data dashboard led by @jmcolston.bsky.social ! One place for global data + insights to accelerate progress against diarrheal disease. Not live yet, but close! Stay tuned 🚀 www.planeo.earth #EpiSky #GlobalHealth #ChildHealth
@ourworldindata.org shows diarrheal diseases are now the 5th leading cause of death in children📉the lowest ever recorded. A global health milestone 🌍but risks remain. At Plan-EO we’re working to lock in progress with data + action 💡💪. www.planeo.earth #EpiSky #GlobalHealth #PublicHealth #ChildHealth
Dr. Nasif Hossain just wrapped up SISMID 2025 🎓, sharing Plan-EO infectious disease research with Ben Lopman & Natalie Dean. Now he’s bringing new skills home to keep pushing Plan-EO forward 🙌 #EpiSky #GlobalHealth #PublicHealth #PlanEO Learn more 👉 www.planeo.earth @jmcolston.bsky.social
We’re excited to be on Bluesky and share our research! Our Plan-EO protocol shows how our dashboard will map child diarrheal pathogens, climate & sanitation risks in LMICs. Dashboard launching soon! For now, read the protocol linked here👇 journals.plos.org/plosone/arti... #PlanEO #ClimateHealth
