mHealth4Afrika – Issues Associated with Co-Designing Technology Solutions for Resource Constrained Environments

[] Prof. Paul Cunningham is an IEEE Distinguished Lecturer who is visiting Toronto and will present his work with mHealth4Afrika. Supported by the European Commission, mHealth4Afrika co-designed and validated a state-of-the-art modular, extensible and multilingual standards based health information system to support strengthening primary healthcare delivery in resource constrained environments in Ethiopia, Kenya, Malawi and South Africa This SSIT Distinguished Lecture (DL) by Prof. Paul M Cunningham (IST-Africa Institute, Ireland) will share insight gained from mHealth4Afrika related to co-designing appropriate technological solutions to address societal challenges in resource constrained environments. While primarily focused on the health domain, it will encompass discussion of ethics and importance of infrastructure (including reliable power).
