ODESS Awards – 2023

From December 20, 2022 to February 20, 2023, organizations that use information and communication technologies to improve access to quality care and medicines in developing countries are invited to submit their applications by referencing or updating their project through the dedicated website page.

The Observatory’s expert committee will then select the most relevant projects, which will receive a prize from the Observatory as well as financial and technical support for one year. Since its creation, 33 laureates have received support.

These prizes will be awarded during the 7th annual conference of the Observatory, which will be held on September 28, 2023 at the Pierre Fabre Foundation headquarters in Lavaur.

You can enter your e-health projects by completing the online form to become a member of The Global South e-Health Observatory.

You will then be able to interact with our network of e-health professionals and promote your innovation by raising its profile. You can enter as many projects as you wish, but please use a separate form for each project.

The projects are published in open access on the Observatory’s website (click here to see the existing projects pages).

This is also the first stage of competing for an Observatory Award, which is accompanied by 12 months of technical and financial support provided by the Foundation.
