As steward of and core contributor to the CHT, Medic is committed to ensuring the platform’s capabilities and technical framework are simultaneously maintained and advanced, but also to supporting the CHT’s usability and adoption by the community at-large. It is our belief that stewarding and investing in the CHT as a digital public good is the best pathway to scale digital community health around the world – and may be the only path to local technical ownership and financial sustainability in Low- and Middle- Income Countries (LMICs).
Insights garnered through global implementation and deep collaboration lead Medic to pursue a product roadmap that accelerates growth among our network of implementing and technical partners so that others can build CHT apps with greater ease, autonomy, and speed for last mile communities.
