The emerging idea of Industry 5.0 in the healthcare sector, also known as Healthcare 5.0 makes use of cutting-edge technologies to revolutionise healthcare delivery, improve patient outcomes and improve the healthcare experience as a whole. Healthcare 5.0, with the right strategies in place, aims for a world where healthcare is affordable, accessible and equitable.

Aware of this, HUMAN brings together a well-balanced partnership in terms of expertise, geographical distribution and level of development. Along with its extensive network of relevant stakeholders, the HUMAN partnership cooperates to improve 8 policy instruments aiming a transformation towards a more efficient, targeted and universal healthcare.

The project focuses on those fields of application where regional and local policies can play a role, namely: telehealth, human-centric care, accessibility, digital health literacy and digital inclusion.
