On December 11 and 12 December, the 5^th Annual Global Digital Health Forum will take place in Washington, DC, USA. The theme for this year’s event looks to the World Health Organization’s “Classification of Digital Health Interventions” as a framework to guide the conversation. The event hosts around 300 attendees, with engaging sessions to connect experts of different fields: government stakeholders, digital health technologists, researchers, donors, implementers from across the globe. The event will feature different interchange formats, like Lightning talk, panel presentations, hands-on workshops, the interactive ‘Appy Hour’, vendor tables and an opportunity to highlight participants’ work on a poster.
