L'application de la technologie de santé numérique se développe rapidement en Afrique, dans
le but d'améliorer la prestation des services de santé et d'atteindre plus efficacement les
communautés éloignées et mal desservies. D'autre part, l'absence de lignes directrices et de
normes da...ns l'ensemble du continent rend difficile le partage des données de manière
significative sur l'ensemble du continent. C'est pourquoi les Centres africains de contrôle et
de prévention des maladies (Africa CDC) ont mis en place un groupe de travail composé de 24
membres afin de fournir une expertise et des conseils pour l'élaboration des lignes directrices
et des normes de l'UA en matière de HIE. Les membres du groupe de travail étaient des
experts en la matière travaillant en Afrique et au niveau international sur la collecte, l'analyse
et l'échange d'informations sur la santé. Certains de ces experts avaient participé à des
consultations antérieures sur la définition de la stratégie des systèmes d'information sur la
santé d'Afrique CDC. Un président, un coprésident et un secrétaire ont été élus pour impliquer
les membres de la tasé force dans différents groupes de travail techniques.
