Artificial intelligence (AI) has enormous potential for improving health outcomes and helping countries achieve universal health coverage. However, for AI to have a beneficial impact on people’s health, ethical considerations and human rights must be placed at the centre of its design, development, and use. Adapted from the core contents of the Guidance on Ethics & Governance of Artificial Intelligence for Health, this course introduces entry-level knowledge to policymakers, AI developers and designers, and health care providers who are involved in designing, developing, using and regulating AI systems for health.

The first focus of this course is on the application, practice and development opportunities of AI in the healthcare industry, with a particular focus on the needs and realities of developing countries. It covers core AI technologies and their healthcare applications, practical paths for implementing AI healthcare projects in developing countries, and global trends and regional opportunities. Unique benefits include case studies tailored to developing regions, actionable implementation strategies, and insights into leveraging global resources for local development.

This course gives aspiring young entrepreneurs a clear understanding of the path of entrepreneurship, the risks and rewards of being an entrepreneur, as well as the business start-up process. Young men and women will benefit from enhancing their entrepreneurial mindset and developing skills to identify and act on opportunities.

This course is designed for trainers, facilitators, learning specialists, and project leaders who want to enhance their ability to design impactful training that drives real behavioural change. It is also ideal for organisations aiming to multiply the impact of their initiatives by embedding a Training of Trainers (TOT) approach.
