STOPAIDS has published new research analysing how Overseas Development Assistance (ODA) donors invest in digital health and human rights.
The report, titled ‘Strengthening Investment and Accountability in Digital Literacy and Human Rights: An analysis of ODA donors’ current digital strategies’, analyses how seven ODA donors integrate digital health into their strategies, with a focus on digital empowerment, digital literacy and human rights protections.
ODA donors play a key role in shaping the digital health and rights agenda. By reviewing their digital health policies and investments, the report aimed to identify gaps and make recommendations to strengthen donors’ digital health investments, accountability and alignment with human rights principles. The report found that ODA donors do not adequately prioritise digital health in their investments, make limited commitments to digital literacy and empowerment, and demonstrate insufficient integration of human rights in digital health programming.
The report is available to read here.
