Description:
The Department of Evidence and Intelligence for Action in Health of the Pan American Health Organization, in close collaboration with the Social Protection and Health Division of the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) invited to a new webinar of the series Share-Listen-Act, COVID 19: Information Systems & Digital Health - Why this area is key during and after the pandemic.
The idea is to change a little bit the format of traditional webinars. Ten experts answered to one question in their area of expertise. This is why the event was called a "Webinar 2.0".
The question each panelist answered was the most voted from participants on Slido during the webinar. Slido opened to allow potential participants to post and vote questions in advance (slido.com #V613). Quick surveys were opened during the webinar for interaction with the audience.
Objective(s) of the meeting:
