| Popis: | Global Health Informatics (GHI) as a branch of health informatics has been established for 2 decades now. During that time, great strides have been made in the creation and implementation of informatics tools to improve healthcare delivery and outcomes in the most vulnerable and remote communities worldwide. In many of the most successful projects, innovation has been shared between teams in high- and low- or middle-income countries (LMICs). In this perspective, we review the state of the academic field of GHI and the work published in JAMIA in the last 6 1/2 years. We apply criteria for articles about LMICs, those on international health, and on indigenous and refugee population, and subtypes of research. For comparison, we apply those criteria to JAMIA Open and 3 other health informatics journals which publish articles on GHI. We make recommendations for future directions and the role that journals like JAMIA can play in strengthening this work worldwide. |
