Despite billions of dollars in global digital health funding, many communities in Nigeria still face underutilized platforms, fragmented care, and heavy dependence on external donors—with an estimated 70% of digital health financing coming from abroad. This raises an urgent question: can we achieve sustainable transformation without building strong, locally driven systems?

In August’s Insights Webinar, we continue the critical conversations from the July 2025 Insights Learning Forum, which brought together policymakers, private sector leaders, development partners, and innovators under the theme “Local Investments for Connected Communities: The Power of Digital Health Networks in Public Health Transformation.” We will explore how local investment beyond just money can include leadership, skilled human resources, and strategic partnerships to create evidence-based solutions that meet the real needs of patients and providers.

This dialogue comes at a pivotal time, as Low and Middle-Income Countries face mounting pressure to build resilient, tech-enabled health systems without relying on external lifelines. Join us as we unpack practical strategies to align investments with community needs, strengthen sustainability, and ensure that digital health becomes a lasting driver of public health improvement in Nigeria.
