Summary: 

The GETHealth Summit brought together healthcare professionals, representatives from the technology and education sectors, academic researchers, global health experts from backgrounds including non-governmental organisations to government. This diverse group of delegates were brought together to participate in a two day event that was composed of plenaries and workshops, whereupon discussion and debate revolved around the Summit’s theme of “Leveraging healthcare ecosystems and information technology to bridge the health workforce gap”.

This report, published by iheed, collects the experiences of individuals and organisations who participated within the plenaries and sessions containing examples of core issues discussed, questions raised and describes recommendations made by delegates, which it is hoped will provide a framework for ICT driven health training that can be implemented now and in the immediate future.
