The Bay Area Global Health Alliance is thrilled to announce the release of Stanford Center for Digital Health (CDH)’s new white paper, Generative AI for Health in Low & Middle Income Countries, with support from the Advancing Health Online (AHO) initiative! 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! View and download the paper here. Watch the recording of the white paper’s launch event held on March 26 here.

Join us to explore a new DHIS2 ICD-11 Cause of Death app: ?? 3 April at 14:00 CET ? Register: https://buff.ly/SlM9P5c This app was created through close collaboration with the World Health Organization and field testing with several Ministries of Health and HISP groups, and has been developed jointly between HISP Vietnam and HISP Centre at University of Oslo. It uses the international form of medical certificate of cause of death as its basis along with the ICD-11 coding system to codify deaths. It does this through the use of the DORIS (WHO Digital Open Rule Integrated Cause of Death Selection) API, allowing you to directly code your causes of death directly in DHIS2. In this webinar, we will provide an overview of the app's features, its functionalities, benefits, and usage, including: Seamless configuration: Install the app using existing Tracker metadata from your own instance. Customizable data entry: Start with the international form of medical certificate of cause of death as your baseline, and add sections or data elements as needed. Full access to the ICD-11 coding system: This includes looking up each of the codes, viewing their chapters, and seeing their full definitions. Use of the digital mortality rule engine: This allows you to use DORIS to automate the selection of your underlying cause of death. Cause of death certificate generation: Generate a customized certificate for sharing death details. Export to ANACoD3: Full export to ANACoD3 is available, allowing you to perform detailed analysis on your data. Full translation support. Join the webinar for a full overview of the app's features and functionality! The app will soon be available for download on the DHIS2 app hub, as we near the webinar date. ?
