abstract: 'Background Forced displacement is a crucial determinant of poor health.
|
|
|
|
With 31 people displaced every minute worldwide, this is an important
|
|
|
|
global issue. Addressing this, the Participation Revolution workstream
|
|
|
|
from the World Humanitarian Summit''s Localisation commitments has gained
|
|
|
|
traction in attempting to improve the effectiveness of humanitarian aid.
|
|
|
|
Simultaneously, digital health initiatives have become increasingly
|
|
|
|
ubiquitous tools in crises to deliver humanitarian assistance and
|
|
|
|
address health burdens.
|
|
|
|
Objective This scoping review explores how the localisation agenda''s
|
|
|
|
commitment to participation has been adopted within digital health
|
|
|
|
interventions used by displaced people in low-and-middle-income
|
|
|
|
countries.
|
|
|
|
Methods This review adopted the Arksey and O''Malley approach and
|
|
|
|
searched five academic databases and three online literature
|
|
|
|
repositories with a Population, Concept and Context inclusion criteria.
|
|
|
|
Data were synthesised and analysed through a critical power lens from
|
|
|
|
the perspective of displaced people in low-and-middle-income- countries.
|
|
|
|
Results 27 papers demonstrated that a heterogeneous group of health
|
|
|
|
issues were addressed through various digital health initiatives,
|
|
|
|
principally through the use of mobile phones. The focus of the
|
|
|
|
literature lay largely within technical connectivity and feasibility
|
|
|
|
assessments, leaving a gap in understanding potential health
|
|
|
|
implications. The varied conceptualisation of the localisation
|
|
|
|
phenomenon has implications for the future of participatory humanitarian
|
|
|
|
action: Authorship of reviewed literature primarily descended from
|
|
|
|
high-income countries exposing global power dynamics leading the
|
|
|
|
narrative. However, power was not a central theme in the literature:
|
|
|
|
Whilst authors acknowledged the benefit of local involvement,
|
|
|
|
participatory activities were largely limited to informing content
|
|
|
|
adaptations and functional modifications within pre-determined projects
|
|
|
|
and objectives.
|
|
|
|
Conclusion With over 100 million people displaced globally, effective
|
|
|
|
initiatives that meaningfully address health needs without perpetuating
|
|
|
|
harmful inequalities are an essential contribution to the humanitarian
|
|
|
|
arena. The gap in health outcomes evidence, the limited constructions of
|
|
|
|
health, and the varying and nuanced digital divide factors are all
|
|
|
|
indicators of unequal power in the digital health sphere. More needs to
|
|
|
|
be done to address these gaps meaningfully, and more meaningful
|
|
|
|
participation could be a crucial undertaking to achieve this.
