The Health and Global Policy Institute (HGPI) Health Information Project hosted a Global Sage Meeting entitled, “Co-creating Health Information Right.”
In the current era of advancing digitalization, when information regarding health and medicine is intertwined, we hosted a multi-disciplinary discussion that was rich in historical and cultural perspectives that examined the nature of accurate and reliable health information together with health sector representatives, patients and patient advocacy leaders, and experts in fields like history, philosophy, anthropology, and religion. Centered around the theme of “health information,” we exchanged broad views on the nature of health information that is needed today and will be needed in the near future, as well as on how to best prepare people for comprehending that information.
