A joint The Lancet and Financial Times Commission

Governing health futures 2030: growing up in a digital world

The Lancet "Our understanding of health and health systems design has been influenced by the rapid technological innovations of the digital era. But governance models have not followed at the same pace. With new challenges facing the health sector, including new digital health stakeholders with variable mindsets and governance models, there are growing calls for international coordination and coherency. To help fill the space, a new joint The Lancet and Financial Times Commission focused on the convergence of digital health, artificial intelligence (AI), and universal health coverage (UHC) has been established to run from October, 2019, to December, 2021. The Governing Health Futures 2030: Growing up in a Digital World Commission will convene a group of independent commissioners from diverse sectors and geographical locations to ensure a broad input of voices in moving forward the digital health agenda."
