Transforming Health Systems: Embracing Digital Innovation for Universal Health Coverage
Our digital health work helps countries use new technology to strengthen and build resilient, responsive health systems. See highlights from Digital Health Week, a global week of action when we explored the power of digital health to drive universal health care.
Let’s keep this conversation going at next month’s Global Digital Health Forum (GDHF). JSI is a proud sponsor of this year’s event, and we’re excited to join partners in Nairobi, Kenya, December 4-6, to share how we meaningfully and sustainably strengthen health systems through digital transformation. Learn more about our presence at GDHF.

Digital health can help us mitigate climate change by improving early warning systems, streamlining disaster response, and enabling data-driven solutions.
