The State of Digital Health in Africa: Where We Are and What’s Next

In Africa lies in integration rather than isolated tools. Sustainable progress will depend on building connected health systems that place patients at the center of care, supported by strong data infrastructure and clear governance frameworks.

As digital health matures, the focus will shift from adoption to optimisation, ensuring solutions deliver measurable outcomes, improve efficiency, and strengthen health systems at scale.

With the right mix of policy support, investment, and collaboration, digital health has the potential to significantly improve healthcare access and quality across the continent.
