Calenda Announcement 1,415,414 (excerpts)

Do digital technologies truly help address existing vulnerabilities? Or do they risk reinforcing certain forms of exclusion or creating new ones? Under what conditions can they help ensure effective access to care for populations most isolated from healthcare systems? We welcome submissions focusing on any national or regional experiences that shed light on the challenges of digital health in contexts of vulnerability and remote access to care (particularly in French overseas territories, Arctic regions, Africa, etc.)
