Project Description

The World Health Organisation (WHO) recognises the critical role of digital health in achieving universal health coverage and improving healthcare efficiency, accessibility, and effectiveness. However, the COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted disparities in countries’ and regions’ ability to digitally transform their healthcare systems. Without addressing inequalities in access and use of digital technology, these disparities may grow.

Healthcare 5.0, driven by Industry 5.0, uses advanced technologies to transform healthcare delivery, enhance patient outcomes, and improve the overall healthcare experience.

Interreg Europe funded HUMAN project empowers regions to adopt Healthcare 5.0 policies, harnessing technology towards inclusive, affordable, and human-centred healthcare.

HUMAN project’s overall objective is the provision of more affordable, accessible, equitable and resilient healthcare services through the introduction of Healthcare 5.0 solutions resulting from improved policy instruments in 8 European regions.
