Who We Are
The Digital Health Literacy and Policy Hub is a transatlantic initiative of the Nanopoulos Foundation that brings together researchers, clinicians, data experts, policy leaders, designers, and community voices.
Through practical collaboration and knowledge-driven work, we strengthen digital health literacy by bridging scientific understanding with real-world use, empowering individuals and health systems to navigate the digital health landscape responsibly and effectively.
- Mission
To advance digital and health literacy globally by generating accessible, evidence based knowledge, connecting experts across disciplines and regions, and fostering inclusive education and policy environments that enable digital health technologies to be understood, trusted, and used responsibly in service of people and communities.
- Vision
A future where digital health innovation is equitable, transparent, and supportive of human well-being, guided by the principle:
One Health. One Ecosystem.
This reflects our belief that digital, biological, environmental, and social health systems are connected and must evolve together responsibly.
- Why Digital Health Literacy Matters
Digital technologies are transforming every aspect of health, from clinical decisions and research to public health, governance, and patient engagement.
Our Hub strengthens digital health literacy, empowering individuals, providers, and institutions to use these tools responsibly, uphold trust and data protection, counter misinformation, and apply evidence-based solutions for all.
Through research, practical guidance, policy alignment, and community-focused initiatives, we make digital health innovation accessible, understandable, and beneficial for all.
