From August to December 2024, Stanford CDH conducted an extensive review including two roundtable events, in-depth interviews with dozens of people who are actively working on applications of GenAI to health and healthcare in LMICs (including academics, health system leaders, implementers, and funders), and a quantitative survey with over 100 respondents. Additionally, the research team reviewed 14 GenAI accelerator programs for health that have collectively supported over 250 projects worldwide.

The white paper has a specific focus on the use of GenAI tools to drive health-related behavior change, and highlights case studies from Audere, Girl Effect, Jacaranda Health, Noora Health, and Viamo. The scoping analysis, framework, and key recommendations are inclusive of a range of health use cases, to contextualize HBC interventions within the wider ecosystem, and facilitate broadly applicable learnings. It explores the questions:
- Where is GenAI being used and what are the greatest successes?
- How can we realize greater impact and unlock the full potential of GenAI, both for behavior change and broader healthcare applications?
?
The top five key recommendations of the report:
- Sharing Learnings
- Focus on Actionable Measurement
- Improve Language and Localization
- Improve Technical Capacity & Shared Infrastructure
- Improve Digital & Basic Health Infrastructure
?
We encourage you to explore the findings and share your thoughts on how your organization will incorporate the recommendations articulated in the white paper!
