Navigating the digital landscape: challenges and advancements in fostering a one health approach through humanity-centered design in mobile health

The integration of digital tools in healthcare is profoundly reshaping global health systems, particularly within the One Health framework, which emphasizes the interconnectedness of human, animal, and environmental health. This article advocates for transitioning from a "human-centered" to a "humanity-centered" design approach to address the multifaceted health challenges faced by diverse populations. By embracing this paradigm, the article underscores the potential of digital health technologies to reduce health inequities, promote inclusivity, and foster multisectorial collaboration. It further highlights the necessity of bridging the digital divide to ensure that innovations are both equitable and sustainable, aligning with the overarching goals of global health advancement.

Abstract

The integration of digital tools in healthcare is profoundly reshaping global health systems, particularly within the One Health framework, which emphasizes the interconnectedness of human, animal, and environmental health. This article advocates for transitioning from a "human-centered" to a "humanity-centered" design approach to address the multifaceted health challenges faced by diverse populations. By embracing this paradigm, the article underscores the potential of digital health technologies to reduce health inequities, promote inclusivity, and foster multisectorial collaboration. It further highlights the necessity of bridging the digital divide to ensure that innovations are both equitable and sustainable, aligning with the overarching goals of global health advancement.
