Today, USAID is launching our Digital Health Position Paper, which will guide 2024-2029 investment in data and digital health to strengthen country health systems. USAID envisions a world in which all people have equitable access to safe, secure, and high-quality health services to promote well-being. By supporting partner countries in their efforts to accelerate integrated and person-centered care through use of digital health technologies, USAID empowers health workers and their patients, and fosters global health security and resilience in the face of growing health threats. https://lnkd.in/gWeF9ej9 #digitaltransformation #healthsystems #digitalhealth

FOR INPUT: USAID is excited to share and seek input on a draft of the new Policy for Global Health Development: Advancing Life Expectancy and Well-Being. We invite all of our partners, collaborators, and stakeholders to read the draft policy and provide feedback to ensure a truly inclusive and informed process. The public comment period will be open until September 3rd, and the draft and a feedback form can be found on the USAID website. This global health policy lays out a bold ten-year vision for optimizing USAID’s significant global health impact and addressing today’s urgent health needs while building sustainable and resilient health systems for the future – a vision that strives to align our programming to collectively focus on strengthening a primary health care (PHC) approach. It will build on and support the vision for ‘progress beyond programs’ outlined in USAID’s Policy Framework, which prioritizes reversing the decline in global life expectancy, bolstering global health security, and improving PHC amidst the complex and interconnected challenges of our time, while maintaining our flagship global health programs. Review the policy and provide your feedback at the link below: https://lnkd.in/g75YCAd4 #NewPolicy #FeedbackRequested #ShareYourThoughts #USAID #GlobalHealth #HealthPolicy #GlobalHealthPolicy
