Giving an overview of the highly anticipated deliberations, WHO regional representative to Botswana, Dr Josephine Namboze said during a media induction meeting that most of the African countries are yet to show potential in approving their respective digital health technologies that would seek to transform their respective healthcare deliveries. These include ways to harness innovation to improve health outcome and strengthen health information systems. She said in 2020, the 70th session adopted the strategy for scaling up health innovations in the WHO African region and a progress report on the implementation of the strategy for scaling up health innovations in Africa will be presented to member states with the aim to further discuss their digital health technologies.
