As we continue advancing digital health, we must ensure it is accessible, usable, and meaningful for all. Because digital health without equity is just another barrier.

#HealthLiteracy is not a level, it is an experience!

Health literacy isn’t something you “have” once and for all—it’s something you “live” in different ways depending on your situation. It’s relational, contextual, and deeply human.

Health literacy level is one indicator, not the full picture.

Health literacy is for everyone, everywhere 🫶🏻

It’s World Health Day.

I am reminded about how far we have come and how far we need to move to ensure health literacy is a shared value—and a strong foundation for better health for all.

Are we getting immune to bad communication?

People face challenges because information is not accessible, understandable, or applicable. Even worse, they may be prone to miscommunication.

Health literacy is the vaccination against miscommunication.

People-centered health has emerged as a powerful model for improving patient outcomes. But it’s a balancing act, requiring healthcare systems to juggle a range of factors.

However, health literacy can play a pivotal role in helping balance the many competing demands of people-centred health.

Health literacy is not just a fancy buzzword. It’s a vital lifeline.

Empowering people with the knowledge, motivation and competencies to make informed health decisions, manage health and seek support can transform lives.
