POLICY PAPER: Empowering Citizens – The Key to a Successful Digital Health Transformation
AI, Digital Transformation

The COVID-19 pandemic brought to the fore the untapped potential for the deployment of digital health tools in Europe. Digital tools can empower citizens to manage their own health, allow healthcare workers to treat patients remotely, enable beneficial research efforts, and equip authorities to accurately track public health through data.

Our Digital Working Group, focused on how the European Union can ensure that citizens are fully empowered and truly engaged in the development of digital health & well-being.

The Policy Paper tackles three key aspects of the digital transformation of healthcare and how they relate to the empowerment of EU citizens; Digital Skills & Literacy, the European Health Data Space and the development of Artificial Intelligence (AI).
