Are you curious about what we worked on last year? We just launched the MSF Sweden Innovation Unit Round-Up 2022. The document includes a series of case studies and lessons learned derived from these projects.

In this post, we look at what the broad field of digital therapeutics encompasses. Making the case for person-centred digital health approaches, we also provide a snapshot of the MSF digital therapeutics strategy.

On November 29th and 30th, MSF Sweden Innovation Unit (SIU) organized a two-half-days' workshop focused on designing and exploring innovative solutions on the topic of Zero Separation in Dakar, Senegal. Zero separation helps us to create the best possible conditions for mothers and babies to receive care together, starting from birth. 

Over the last year, our innovation colleagues in the UK-based MSF Manson Unit have carried out a series of Digital Health Promotion pilots in Bangladesh, Malaysia and Tajikistan to evaluate a five-step process for developing context-specific digital campaigns in MSF operations.

World Diabetes Day (November 14) provides us with an opportunity to spotlight the substantial, and growing, global health demand for Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes care and a chance to share an insight into the MSF Sweden Innovation Unit’s focus on supporting people living with diabetes in humanitarian settings using digital therapeutics (DTx).
