Last week, The Digital Health Literacy Hub was proud to be represented at the World Economic Forum 2026 in Davos by our Youth Ambassador, Danai Spentzou, who contributed to high-level discussions on the future of health, technology, and equity.
Danai intervened in two key forums, consistently highlighting one essential message: Digital innovation in health can only succeed if people have the literacy, trust, and skills to understand and use it.
Women Davos – Public Panel
“Virtual Twins: Bridging the Women’s Health Equality Gap”
– Hosted by the @World Woman Foundation
During this panel, Danai emphasized the critical role of digital health literacy in ensuring emerging technologies such as virtual twins do not deepen existing inequalities.
Health innovation must be designed and communicated in ways that empower individuals — particularly women — to make informed decisions, trust new tools, and actively engage in their own health.
Closed-door discussion on Most Favoured Nation Pricing
– Hosted by Partners for Patients NGO
In this policy-focused setting, Danai contributed a literacy-centered perspective, reinforcing that patient access, affordability, and transparency are inseparable from health literacy. Empowered patients are better positioned to navigate pricing systems, advocate for themselves, and participate meaningfully in health decision-making.
Through these interventions, The Digital Health Literacy Hub reaffirmed its commitment to:
- Placing people at the center of digital health transformation
- Ensuring innovation is inclusive, understandable, and trustworthy
- Elevating youth voices in global health and policy discussions
Health innovation is not only about technology.
It is about people understanding it, trusting it, and being able to use it.
