We use sustainable innovation to solve bottlenecks, accelerate impact, and improve health, focusing on the most neglected problems and people.

WHO has three key objectives to promote the adoption and scale-up of digital health and innovation:

Translating latest data, research, and evidence into action: this means promoting standards for interoperability and data sharing and supporting implementation of innovative digital solutions that contribute to informed decision making.

Reinforcing knowledge generation through guidance and scientific communities of practice: ensuring planning and decisions into digital and innovation investments are evidence driven and informed by collective learning. Strengthening capacity, and brings together expertise on topics of effective ways of leveraging digital tools and systems to strengthen clinical and public health systems.

Linking countries health demands with ready-to-scale digital health solutions innovations with a proven impact: WHO takes a proactive, systematic approach to identify, prequalify, matchmake and scale digital health solutions and innovations that are based on countries health needs. This matching of supply to demand, while advising on best practices, help to ensure that digital health technologies and health innovations are effective, appropriate, and accessible to all.
