I am pleased to share that I led the development of a new report on "Digital Health : The Case of Egypt Transition and Transformation" with Dr. Mohamed Fayek and Engineer Sarah Eltawansy. The report discusses several challenges in the Egyptian healthcare system and the current state of digital health in Egypt. This report presents a comprehensive roadmap for building a thriving digital health ecosystem. This report covers two of the most key areas of my expertise who are healthcare and digitalization.

Insightful report by my Professor

As part of Egypt's progress as the first country implementing the Progression Pathway, I presented Egypt’s role in fostering private sector engagement in healthcare and the proactive steps taken by the Ministry of Health and Population. Highlights included: i. Government efforts to address the challenges of public-private partnerships (PPP) in the healthcare sector, ii. The legislative environment supporting these initiatives, iii. The proposed framework and opportunities for partnerships. Excited to continue advancing healthcare through these valuable discussions and partnerships.

On April 30, 2024, the third day of the #WHO Workshop on #PrivateSectorEngagement in #Egypt, a session was held to discuss the question "Is #PublicPrivatePartnership the Right Instrument for Egypt's #HealthSector? The session discussed eight areas that need to be considered if Egypt decides to pursue Public Private Partnerships for infrastructure and services type of projects in health. These eight areas are discussed in the attached article from #TheHieroglyphsOfHealth https://lnkd.in/d4y2dxz2

Sudan's health information system has been severely impacted since the outbreak of war on April 15, 2023. The ongoing conflict has exacerbated existing challenges—such as declining reporting rates, data quality, and overall functionality—issues that have been accumulating for over five years. In response, development partners, implementers, and government institutions should adopt resilient, real-time monitoring and data collection tools to capture accurate, on-the-ground information and guide informed interventions. As we move forward, it is critical to allocate substantial resources to health information systems (HIS) and Health Management Information Systems (HMIS) to strengthen Sudan's healthcare delivery system and ensure better outcomes for its people. 💡 Real-time data is essential for real-time solutions. #Sudan #HealthSystems #HIS #HMIS #PublicHealth #DataForDevelopment #ConflictRecovery #HealthcareInnovation #ResilientSystems #RealTimeData #DataDrivenInterventions #GlobalHealth

#HealthDialogueMondays Building a #ResilientFuture: Strengthening Health Systems for Emergencies The increasing frequency and severity of #global_health_crises impose the urgent need for #robust and #resilient_health_systems. While the world has shown remarkable #resilience in responding to many recent health emergencies, it's crucial to shift our focus from reactive to #proactive_measures. This involves building health systems capable of anticipating, preventing, and effectively responding to crises. Egypt Healthcare Authority is collaborating with several stakeholders and entities in order to improve the efficiency and resilience of Egypt's reformed healthcare system, and we're shifting the focus from being reactive to being proactive by #capacitybuilding and #insightfulplanning The Questions of the Day are: - How can we foster #stronger_collaboration between the #public and #private sectors to enhance #emergency_preparedness_and_response capabilities? - How can we leverage #technology to improve #early_warning_systems and #crisis_communication? - What role can #community_engagement play in building #resilient_health_systems?

Hospitals, as crucial public health pillars, are particularly strained by climate-related events, revealing vulnerabilities in their infrastructure and operations. The #WHO and #AHF have collaborated with other partners to increase awareness on this subject and implement a framework for action on climate change and health, aiming to enhance the climate resilience of health systems. This framework seeks to protect and improve community health in a changing climate while optimizing resource use and reducing GHG emissions, in addition to building the climate resilience and environmental sustainability of Arab healthcare facilities. I will be sharing a panel focusing on the sustainability of healthcare facilities as a crucial component of the overall health system. A special focus will be given on the success story of Egypt’s Healthcare Authority . #ghgemissions #climatechange #sustainability #healthcare #AfricaHealthExcon #ArabHospitalsFederation
