AI Governance in Global Health: What It Means in Practice—and Why It Matters Now

AI Governance in Global Health: What It Means in Practice—and Why It Matters Now

On May 7, the Alliance convened leaders from HealthAI, Transform Health, and Vital Strategies for a candid conversation on what AI governance means in practice — and why it is quickly becoming central to whether AI strengthens health systems or deepens existing inequities. Co-moderated by Daniel Messer, chief digital and IT transformation officer at FHI 360, and Sara Anderson, executive director of the Alliance, the discussion focused not only on safeguards and regulation, but on the deeper infrastructure required for responsible and sustainable AI adoption.
