Strengthening health data governance in the digital age
Towards improved health outcomes and UHC
The digitalisation of health systems and rapid development of digital tools and Artificial Intelligence (AI) for health has accelerated the generation of health data. This requires strengthened and more equitable health data governance to maximise its value for public benefit and improved health outcomes whilst protecting rights.
This website contains resources and tools to advocate for and support more robust health data governance, including:
- A model law and legislative guide and a landscape assessment tool to support national efforts to review and strengthen health data governance frameworks
- Principles that can be used across stakeholder groups to guide equity and rights-based health data governance
- Landscape reviews to deepen understanding of how countries are addressing health data governance and to take stock of current legislation and regulation
- A communications toolkit, articles, and other resources to support advocacy efforts
