Young Experts; Tech for Health (YET4H) is a dynamic and inclusive network working to center youth rights and perspectives at the heart of digital transformation for Universal Health Coverage (UHC). Led by youth, for youth, YET4H believes in a world where young people are resourced and empowered to interrogate the status quo in digital health, represent the diversity of youth, and shape more inclusive and equitable paradigms in the global digital health agenda. To ensure the youth voice and sustainability of YET4H, we are looking to recruit our third cohort of 8 members(Age 18-35 years) from October 2024 to September 2025, to support the implementation of our new digital health and youth engagement work plan.
Our Vision: A global digital health ecosystem that meaningfully engages young people, catering to their unique needs and challenges, recognising them as equal stakeholders and partners in achieving Universal Health Coverage.
Our Mission: To build thought leadership and engender pathways for meaningful youth participation to reimagine healthcare in a digital age and champion youth voices and perspectives, by harnessing the power of human-centered technology to deliver healthcare that is inclusive, equitable and accessible to all.
Our Key Objectives:
- Build a global youth network that can represent the diversity of young people, and facilitate the sharing of skills, knowledge, resources and opportunities, to engage with the digital health ecosystem, and contribute to making it more inclusive, equitable, and transformative.
- Advocate for inclusive, equitable and youth-centered programs and policies within the global digital health agenda towards achieving UHC and health for all.
