decision-makers, regulators, telecommunication operators, donors and
customers about the role of telecommunication and information
technologies. Within SG2, Question 14-2/2 leads the work on

The importance of e-Health in developing countries
cannot be over emphasized. Study Group 2 Question 14-2/2, established in

disseminates experiences and best practices on the use of
telecommunications in the health sectors of developing countries.
The group also seeks to promote collaboration and
commitment between the telecommunication sector and the health sector in
developing countries, in order to maximize the utilization of limited
resources on both sides for implementing e-Health applications.
