Global Digital Health Forum 2024
4-6 December, Nairobi, Kenya & Worldwide Online
Palladium is proud to sponsor this year’s Global Digital Health Forum (GDHF), taking place from December 4–6 in Nairobi! We are excited to join the global digital health community to share lessons learned about how to leverage sustainable, appropriate, and innovative digital and analytic technologies to transform global health outcomes.
We look forward to sharing our knowledge, insights, and expertise in digital transformation through a breakout session focused on leveraging digital tools to enhance global health security surveillance in Kenya, as well as several other panels, workshops, and presentations throughout the conference.
This year we are represented by several of our Palladium experts as well as members of the Data for Implementation (Data.FI) and the KenyaHMIS projects.

Palladium Satellite Session Recording | HIV and Global Health Security: Policy, Financing and Data
The traditional global health emergency effort of prevention, detection, and response that was honed during the HIV epidemic and is collectively known as "global health security" (GHS) is in a period of recalibration. Moving forward, resources are being aligned to leverage the innovations that came out of the COVID-19 pandemic to inform a more resilient response to the next emerging threats. Watch this session to learn about trends, new approaches, and case studies to help inform the path forward.
