    Hensard Journal of Health Governance and Digital Transformation

    Hensard Journal of Health Governance and Digital Transformation (HJHGDT) is an international, peer-reviewed, open-access journal dedicated to advancing scholarly and policy-relevant knowledge at the intersection of health governance, public policy, and digital transformation. The journal provides a rigorous interdisciplinary platform for examining how emerging digital technologies—such as artificial intelligence, digital health systems, big data, and e-governance—are reshaping health systems, public administration, and policy frameworks worldwide.

    The journal responds to the growing need for evidence-based governance models that ensure digital innovation in health is ethical, equitable, accountable, and sustainable. It publishes high-quality original research, systematic reviews, conceptual frameworks, and policy analyses that explore the complex interactions between public health, institutional governance, regulatory systems, and digital technologies across diverse global contexts.

    HJHGDT places strong emphasis on the ethical, legal, and social implications (ELSI) of digital health and artificial intelligence, encouraging critical discourse on data governance, privacy, equity, inclusion, and responsible innovation. In addition, the journal highlights innovative governance and reform models that demonstrate how digital transformation can enhance health system performance, transparency, resilience, and public trust.

    By integrating academic research with real-world policy and practice, the journal seeks to bridge the gap between theory and implementation. It welcomes policy-relevant case studies, comparative analyses, and practice-oriented contributions that translate empirical findings into actionable recommendations for decision-makers. While global in scope, the journal particularly encourages contributions addressing challenges and innovations in low- and middle-income countries, where digital transformation presents both critical opportunities and governance risks.
