Webinar: Digital Health in Practice – Putting People at the Centre of Care

Home / Events / Webinar: Digital Health in Practice – Putting People at the Centre of Care
📅 17th November 2026

Digital technologies, and especially artificial intelligence (AI), are changing how we look after our health and wellbeing. Some apps help us manage our everyday health and wellbeing. Other AI tools support doctors during consultations. The possibilities are real, but so is the question that matters most: who stays in control?
Rather than simply tell people what to do, AI in health can be used responsibly to help people understand: to explain, give context and lay out options, so that patients and healthcare professionals can make informed decisions themselves. The aim is to strengthen human judgement, not replace it.
This webinar is jointly hosted by IVI and the Data Innovation Office of Aga Khan University Nairobi. The hosts bring together two complementary perspectives:
  • Empowering individuals: how responsible AI can help people take an active role in their physical, mental, social and emotional wellbeing, with the knowledge and confidence to make their own choices.
  • Supporting healthcare professionals: how AI-powered platforms can give clinicians practical, transparent guidance for clinical decisions, while the final decision stays with the clinician and the patient.
Together, we willl explore:
  • How digital tools, and especially AI, can help us understand and manage our health and wellbeing
  • How AI can support, rather than replace, the healthcare professionals we rely on
  • What it takes to protect privacy and build trust in health technology
  • How solutions can reflect the real needs of local communities
Whether you work in healthcare, research, technology or community development, or simply want to understand what digital health could mean for you and your family, this conversation is for you.
We look forward to welcoming you.
