ACROSS THE WORLD AND ONLINE

2-8 NOVEMBER 2026

Digital Health Week is a global week of action that brings together politicians, civil society, the private sector and citizens to explore the opportunities and challenges of digital health. This week-long initiative aims to highlight the critical role of digital health in achieving Universal Health Coverage and produce learnings that can steer future discussion on the issue. 

Now in its fourth year, Digital Health Week is an open space where organisations and participants can take action, run events and collaborative activities and share their own perspectives, innovative solutions, and practical experiences. The week runs from 4-10 November 2024.

Digital Health Week 2026

Digital Health Week 2026 is a global week of action led by Transform Health and partners across the digital health community.

This year, the week is closely linked to the Roadmap to 2030: Health for All in the Digital Age. The Roadmap sets out five goals, with ambitions and actions to accelerate the digital transformation of health systems and progress towards universal health coverage by 2030.

Digital Health Week creates a space for organisations to turn these shared goals into visible action. Partners can organise events and activities, share their work, connect with others, and show how they are contributing to digital transformation that works for everyone.

Why participate?

THEMES OF THE WEEK

In 2025, Digital Health Week was conducted under a shared vision of ‘The Future of Digital Health to 2030’. We explored several sub-themes under this overarching umbrella – giving partners the flexibility to focus on priorities that matter most in their context.

Equity and Inclusion

Equity and Inclusion
Digital health must reach everyone. Closing gaps in access, tackling the gender digital divide, and centring the needs of youth, women, people with disabilities, and marginalised groups ensures no one is left behind in the digital age.

Trust and Responsible Data Use

Trust and Data Protection
Building trust starts with strong data governance. Clear laws, rights, and safeguards protect people while enabling innovation. Responsible data use makes digital health systems more accountable, fair, and sustainable.

AI and Emerging Tech

AI and Emerging Tech
AI and frontier technologies bring opportunities to transform care, from early detection to resource allocation. To harness these benefits responsibly, countries need strong foundations that protect rights, ensure ethical use, and adapt to local contexts.

Financing and Investment

Financing and Investment
Digital transformation needs sustainable investment. Countries are exploring innovative models, like debt-for-health swaps, digital taxes, and insurance, to reduce reliance on aid and mobilise domestic resources for stronger, more resilient health systems.

Policy and Governance

Policy and Governance
Strong governance and inclusive policies anchor digital health. From national strategies to clear interoperability standards, effective regulation ensures systems are integrated, equitable, and aligned with universal health coverage goals.

During last year’s Digital Health Week, Transform Health organised thematic dialogues to gather  insights from diverse stakeholders such as governments, civil society, youth, and communities to help shape the Roadmap to 2030.
