The STRATEGIC project aims to co-create responsible research and innovation approach that aligns with social-cultural values, principles, contexts, needs and interests in Sub- Saharan Africa (SSA) and contribute to strengthen the ethics and regulatory capacity to ensure responsible use of digital health technologies for clinical research and practice. While most countries in the Global North have recognised the importance of responsible digital health technologies, the ethics and regulatory capacities for addressing the ethical and legal risks of these technologies are still lacking in SSA.
