A place for young people to shape our health futures

#MyHealthFutures Youth Network is a global community of young people interested in how technology is transforming health and committed to ensuring that young people have a meaningful role in shaping that future. We bring together young advocates, researchers, innovators, students, health professionals, policymakers and changemakers to learn, connect, collaborate and influence the future of digital health.

Inspired by the needs of children and young people, the network is dedicated to improving digital health, global governance and youth empowerment by generating dialogues, events, and actions that are co-designed and co-governed for and with youth. The network calls on all stakeholders in the digital health ecosystem to build better health futures with and for young people.

People. Ideas. Opportunities.
