The future of health care
Target group: Caregivers, doctors, nurses, CEOs and administration of clinics
Challenge Statement: How can we future-proof the hospitals in times of crises?
Description: The health sector is confronted with a multitude of challenges, including staff shortages, rapidly rising costs, and an increasing amount of health risks as the impact of climate change continues to increase. While the health sector constitutes a critical part of a country’s infrastructure, caregivers, doctors, nurses, and other healthcare professionals have to work under physically and mentally challenging conditions. As challenges for the health sector continue increase, we need more sustainable solutions to accelerate digitalisation, close the funding gap and build climate resilience.
