Developing equitable, sustainable informatics solutions is key to scalability and long-term success for projects in the global health informatics (GHI) domain. This webinar presents key strategies for incorporating principles of health equity in the GHI project lifecycle.
The AMIA GHI Working Group organized a collaborative workshop at the 2023 AMIA Annual Symposium that included the presentation of five case studies of how principles of health equity have been incorporated into projects situated in low-and-middle-income countries and with Indigenous communities in the U.S. and best practices for operationalizing these principles into other informatics projects.
The five principles:
- Inclusion and Participation in Ethical, Sustainable Collaborations;
- Engaging Community-Based Participatory Research Approaches;
- Stakeholder Engagement;
- Scalability and Sustainability;
- Representation in Knowledge Creation, along with strategies that informatics researchers may use to incorporate these principles into their work.
