Online course Digital principles

Year of production: 2022

Digital Principles is a self-paced course that introduces each of the nine Digital Principles, contextualises them in a digital health program case study, and showcases tools and resources that can be applied to all stages of a project lifecycle.

This online course includes 1 introductory video and 5 main videos – each 30 minutes, focused on specific principles.

The course is based on the Principles for Digital Development – nine living guidelines that are designed to help integrate best practices into technology-enabled programs and are intended to be updated and refined over time. They include guidance for every phase of the project life cycle, and they are part of an ongoing effort among development practitioners to share knowledge and support continuous learning. The Digital Principles were created in a community-driven effort, the result of many lessons learned through the use of information and communication technologies ( ICTs) in development projects. All stakeholders are encouraged to use them.
