Health futures are being decided now. Digital technologies and data carry great potential to improve young people’s health and well-being. However, weak and non-inclusive governance of digital transformations is exacerbating health inequities, threatening human rights, and undermining individual agency.

In this pre-formed panel, the Governing Health Futures 2030 Commission will present the findings from its report and recommendations for public value-driven governance of digital transformations that allows young people to be fully involved in shaping their health futures.

You’ll hear about the synergies from the Commission’s report recommendations and the youth statement and call to action; research on young people’s use of digital technologies for health; the development of a typology of digital childhoods; and an initiative to imagine health futures through science fiction. You’ll also be encouraged to share your own views about digital health governance and help to shape the next phase of the Commission’s work.
