Publications

The World Health Organization (WHO) and the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) are pleased to present this National eHealth Strategy Toolkit. WHO and ITU have a long history of working together, and this new publication represents one of our most substantial and significant collaborations of recent years. It fully reflects the importance that the governing bodies of our two organizations attach to the development of national eHealth strategies.

This is a shared work that reflects a shared goal – responding to the needs of countries, at every level of development, who seek to adapt and employ the latest information communication technologies (ICT) in health for the measurable benefit of their citizens. The National eHealth Strategy Toolkit is a milestone in our understanding of what eHealth is, what it can do, and why and how it should be applied to health care today.
