A Continental Digital Public Health Framework
Trusted Health is Trusted Health Alliance led by the African Union Commission (AUC) and the Africa CDC to transform the continent’s public health infrastructure through a continental digital health highway encompassing e-surveillance, e-preventive, e-diagnostics, and e-therapeutics.
Some of the Apps enabling these efforts
The Public Health Digital Ecosystem (PHDE)
Powering a country-level Port Health Interoperability
Implement tight controls on quality assurance backed by big data and AI so that digital health records, including test results and vaccination records generated on the continent can be trusted and verified globally. In this regard, a continental digitally driven quality certification program for labs has been developed under the aegis of the African Society of Laboratory Medicine.
