Cameroon is exploring the potential of telemedicine as a tool for improving access to healthcare, particularly for people living far from health facilities.
An experience-sharing workshop was held in Yaoundé on September 23, under the theme “Telemedicine in the Service of Equitable Access to Care.”
The event was organised in partnership with the Recover Foundation in Africa, a civil society organisation working in health cooperation in Cameroon.
Participants discussed how digital technologies can help patients access medical consultations remotely and how telemedicine could support healthcare delivery in areas with limited access to medical services.
The initiative forms part of wider discussions on digital health and strengthening healthcare systems in Africa.
