Description
Summary:"Resilient Health: Leveraging Technology and Social Innovations to Transform Healthcare for COVID-19 Recovery and Beyond presents game-changing and disruptive technological innovations and social applications in physical and mental healthcare around the world for the post-COVID age and beyond, addressing the urgent need for care. In this first-of-its kind comprehensive volume, experts and stakeholders from all sectors -- government and the public and private sectors -- offer models and frameworks for policy, programming, and financing to transform healthcare, address inequities, close the treatment gap, and "build back better," especially for under-resourced vulnerable communities globally, to "leave no one behind" and advance development globally. Contributions from world experts cover 8 essential parts: The context and challenges for resilient health systems to shape the future; developments and directions (AI, VR, MR, IVAs and more); an innovations toolbox, also targeted for special populations and settings (women, youth, ageing, migrants, disabled persons, indigenous peoples, in the workplace); the role of stakeholders (governments, the United Nations bodies, and the public and private sector); forums and networks; innovative financing; resources, lessons learned and the way forward"--Publisher's site.
