Digital Health & Technology

Enabling civil society to shape responsible, equitable digital health policy - from AI governance and data rights to infectious disease surveillance innovation.

The Digital Health and Technology Committee ensures civil society has a voice in the digital transformation of infectious disease response. We engage WHO Digital Health Strategy processes, develop positions on AI governance, data rights, and health information interoperability, and build digital capacity within member organisations. Our work ensures digital innovation serves equity and reaches the communities that need it most.
