#YDHE2025 Our next session the focus will be on long-term strategic planning, financing mechanisms, policy frameworks, public and private partnerships, and long-term sustainability and innovation for digital health initiatives. Stay tuned for live tweets on this topic!

The path forward requires humility, open collaboration, and focusing relentlessly on the young person. Massive thanks to our Session 2 speakers, moderator Debbie Rogers, and participants for this essential conversation! 🙏 @UNFPA @UNFPA_ESARO @girleffect @ShoutItNowSA

4️⃣ Wouter Vink (Dimagi) reminded us: "It’s difficult to know what you don’t know... it’s important to continuously learn and be open to pivot. Also be open to being wrong." #YDHE2025

Our session on Emerging Tech & AI at #YDHE2025 just wrapped! 🤯 The consensus is clear: the future of youth digital health depends less on what technology we build, and more on how we build it and who we build it with. Here are 4 must-share takeaways from our speakers 👇

@UNFPASA What scares you about the technology? Milton notes that there is a lot that is possible but there is also a lot to still work on such as mistrust in big tech and AI

@UNFPASA What gets in the way of adoption of innovation? Language barriers, usability, access, people in communities not receiving adequate information and resources

The first coffee break is over and minds are sharp. Next up: The session we’re leading on ‘Emerging Tech & AI’. We are moving the needle from pilots to policy, focusing on responsible frameworks for leveraging AI for youth SRHR. #UNFPAExpo2025 #DigitalSRHR #YouthHealth2030
