How can we integrate AI applications to support frontline healthcare workers in low-resource settings? This was the central theme of the third convening of the Bay Area Global Health Alliance’s 2024 Discussion Series on AI and Global Health.

Here are some key insights from our speakers:
Elina Urli Hodges, Assistant Director, Programs, Duke Global Health Innovation Center:
“It’s just really important that we involve the community health workers and those frontline health workers into the design of these applications, making sure that the applications fit their workflows and are making their jobs easier.”
Andrew Ddembe, CEO & Founder of MOBIKLINIC HOLDINGS:
“Our community health workers were working in communities on different patients, children, mothers, and the elderly, but there was a big challenge with identification and continuity of service. It became extremely challenging for the community health workers to keep paper records of these different members in the community”
Raghav Minocha, Senior Manager, Partnerships, Simprints:
“There are almost a billion people on this planet who do not have any form of formal ID. Without those IDs, especially in rural and remote areas in LMICs, there’s no way for them to be able to access lifesaving health and aid supplies.”
Enric Jané, Chief Strategy Officer, Causal Foundry:
“Our goal is to lower the barrier to access all these technologies and basically what we have is a platform that will allow any digital tool to integrate with and leverage a set of AI tools.”
