Colleagues,

Welcome to the final week of our course.

You have mapped the ecosystem, built the surveillance frameworks, and designed the dashboards. You now have a clear view of the systemic failures driving late-stage cervical cancer presentations. Now, we have to convince the decision-makers to care.

This week, our focus is on translation and equity. We will discuss how to turn clinical data into policy arguments, and how to ensure our digital solutions do not accidentally leave the poorest patients behind.

Your Commitment This Week: ~2.5 Hours

  1. Watch: Video 1: Speaking Policy and Video 2: The Equity Check.
  2. Engage: Join our final discussion. Let's debate the reality of digital health in West Africa—does it democratize care, or does it just widen the digital divide?
  3. Submit: Your Final Design Submission. Download the Executive Policy Pitch in the assignment. No academic filler. Give me a clear, sustainable, equitable strategy for Imo State. You will need to build on the work you have done over the past 4 weeks to complete this. So I have extended the due dates to help you. 

Let's finish strong.
