In a presentation at the Uganda National Digital Health Conference 2024, held by the @MinofHealthUG in partnership with @afyanahakiug and other stakeholders, we delved into the critical importance of Digital Health Justice ensuring that digital health initiatives are equitable, fair, inclusive, and respect the rights of all individuals. Key themes included the emerging need to enhance advocacy capacities, and leveraging an Africentric approach to develop locally appropriate, relevant and context-specific solutions. The presentation highlighted the potential benefits of digital health while emphasizing the necessity of addressing potential harms.
