Nearly 50% of the world lacks access to essential health care. In many countries this is due to weak health systems. Attempts to strengthen these systems, including using digital tools and technology are often fragmented and uncoordinated.
Transform Health is a global coalition of 200+ organisations driving the digital transformation of health to achieve universal health coverage. We tackle complex issues that no single organisation can resolve, leveraging the collective power of our coalition. Our focus is on strengthening the enabling environment - the laws, regulation, policies, coordination structures and resources - that ensure digital technology is adopted responsibly, equitably, and at scale.
Our work centres around three key objectives to accelerate the digital transformation of health:
-
Building Political Will and Creating an Enabling Environment
-
Strengthening Health Data Governance
-
Ensuring More and Better Funding For Digital Health Transformation
GLOBAL COMMUNITY LOCAL ACTION
-
Multi-sectoral collaboration
200+ organisations from different sectors form the coalition, comprising civil society, academia, professional bodies, the private sector and grassroots organisations.
-
-
Influencing regional agendas
In Africa, Asia and Latin America in partnership with regional networks.
